House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge #82 -Friends


It's all aboutYou gotta have Friends  this week at House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge  #82.    This is a pretty easy challenge don't you think???  All these meeces  ( Monica, Mudpie, Maxwell, and Amanda) are all great buddies and seem to be busy enjoying this basket of apples! Here in Oregon, the farms around are just finishing the fall apple harvest...and boy are these fresh apples tasty! I love them  fresh picked!

I cannot  even tell you how long it took to color this image...Good thing I love to color...House Mouse images were meant for copic coloring though! This stamp if reallllyyy big, so there isn't much room for embellies or whatnot, so best to just let the lovely stamp speak for itself!

Challenge #82 is sponsored by Simon Says Stamp!...a stamp of your choice! Wish I could enter....but I can't...but you can!

I hope you can join in and play along this week. Thanks for stopping by and visiting!

  14. It IS a huge stamp and must have taken ages - but then again, ANYTHING takes me ages!! lol And you're right - some big impact images are much better off to be left to do all the work without adding much embellies!!

  15. Fabulous card Sue, your colouring is amazing - those apples look good enough to eat and your array of colours is astounding!!!
    Fortunately I think these huge images speak for themselves and don't need much embellishing.

  17. Sue, it's sooo funny that we've been coloring the same HM images lately! I've just colored this one also, BUT NOT as beautiful as your coloring! I don't own the copics, so i used water color pencils. As you said, it took lots of time to color the image, and i dont' like my colored image, so it's still sitting on my desk... You colored it beautifully, and finished it into a beautiful card! As you said, HM large image is as pretty as the way it is, and hard to put anything else on it...

  20. Your coloring on this is really off the charts! So vibrant and colorful. The one thing I hate about coloring HM images like this are all the blades of grass! They drive me nuts. Love this card! Best, Curt
