The Cat's Pajamas Sneak Peek Day 7: Year of the Rat

 Hello there inky friends!  Today I'm joining my fellow Cat Packers as we sneak a peek at the new set "Year of the Rat".  Since my Chinese Zodiac animal is the Rat, I thought it was just perfect to play along with this set.  I love that it also includes a coffee cup...YUP...had to include that in my design!

This set and the coordinating dies are available today STAMPS HERE DIES HERE.
Make sure to hop along and check out all the sneaks of this fun set and leave some comments along the way for a chance at a great TCP Prize!  

To create my card, I started out by stamping the mice on Neenah Solar White Cover Stock #110.  After stamping, I colored with Copics.  Next, I colored the "floor" and added some black microfine pen marks.  Next, I Used a blue Copic marker to color the "wallpaper".  After coloring, I added some "roses" with my copics and then embellished those with white Gelly Roll Pen.  
 To finish off my card, I stamped the sentiment and attached it with some pink Hemptique twine and then mounted the whole panel onto a white card base.  I love that the design completely fills the page.
Thanks for hopping over and I hope to see you tomorrow as we launch the brand new collection.  Do you have a favorite?
