The image I used is one of the new Gruffies stamps - Laundry Line. I don't own this stamp. My Friend Jenny RAK'd me some images recently. She also gave me the one with the Gruffie sleeping in the hammock between the sunflowers. The new Gruffies stamps are just so darn cute!
I colored the image with my Prismas and mineral spirits. I sponged in the sky with blue pigment ink. Since the image is very detailed, I left the background of the card fairly simple and used a soft blue/green color scheme. I think the DP in the circle looks like bubbles, which matches the theme of the image. Because of the size of the image, I didn't have room on the circle to put the three gems in a straight line, so I added them to three scallops on each side. I also added a ribbon. Once I decide what I'm going to use this card for, I will most likely add a tag or something with a sentiment. I have some mini clothespins that I thought would look cute with this image, but they didn't really fit anywhere. I may try those next time I use this image with a different layout.

It's just adorable!! Love everything. I tried to use mini clothes pins that I've had for a year too but they got lost on the background paper. I need to start a card with those in mind.
Nice job.....

This is a great card and you've done a spectacular job of coloring. The gem placement is perfect too. I see you are well on your way to your 200 card goal for the year! Stamp on.
Awwwww that is so darn cute. I may have to add this one to my wish list.
Cute, cute, cute! I love the polka dotted ribbon, love the gingham background paper, love the colors you chose to color it. P-awesome job! Keep on stampin' on!
I don't know how I missed this card on my blog window Judy, but I found it when I was visiting and looking for your all white card. This is darling! I like how you sponged the sky. That stamp is really darling. I need to find a group of people who want to swap mouse-house images. There are just so many I want.
