Fuzzy Wuzzy was a....mouse????

I made this card a few days ago, after reading about the Anything goes challenge at Fuzzy Wuzzy and the embossing challenge at House Mouse and Friends. I needed to make a card for a family member who is currently dealing with some serious health issues (this is the guy I wrote about two posts or so ago). I love this House Mouse image, but I really wanted to highlight the one particular part of the mouse sucking on a lemon. Basically, this cute little sentiment stamp I had was calling to me. It actually says "being sick just stinks," but I remembered it as saying, "being sick just sucks." With my unreliable memory in my mind, I thought that a mouse sucking on a lemon would be perfect, so I cut him out from the larger image, colored him up, and went looking for my sentiment stamp. Imagine my surprise when it said "stinks" and not "sucks"! Rather than finding a new sentiment or typing it up on my computer, I simply handwrote the word "sucks", matted it on a color to match the card, and slapped that sucker down. This is how it turned out:

I colored the image with copics, embossed some yellow cardstock, and found a big lime sticker that had somehow made it through the recent purge of my scrap room. And I gotta tell ya, no matter which way you put it, being sick really does stink/suck.
