I'm gonna tell you right now that the photo does NOT do this card justice. House Mouse stamps are amazing to color. Looks a bit intimidating huh? Look closely at how the stamped image has little dots to indicate the areas where you would have shading. If you are new to Copic Coloring the House Mouse , Happy Hoppers, or Gruffies by Stampabilities would be a great place to start. I purchased mine at ABC Toys & Crafts along with that yummolicious polka dot ribbon by Making Memories. I tend to hoard that stuff and couldn't bring myself to use any of the fabric brads that come with the ribbon (see it HERE) Since I wasn't having much imagination of my own today, I pretty much copied (ok I flat out copied), the image sticker that is on the stamp itself. Here is the image on the stamp:
