BACK TO SCHOOL!!!

I had a few problems with this one - mainly the fact I had no school type mousies and had to be inventive. Do you ever get ideas then wished you hadn't?  The blackboard part of the easel was easy - the legs - they got shorter and shorter until I reached a point I just had to stop before it became legless!!!

I had a foam alphabet which I thought I could colour white with acrylic paint then colour them with Copics - great idea - except it took about 10 coats of white acrylic to cover them. I had no numbers so had to improvise there.

Now onto the mousies - the one at the top is 'curious Muzzy', He has really long hair which is dark grey. He is very, very curious and extremely investigative.

Bottom left is Mudpie 'Relax' - he is brown with a little nick in his ear which happened when he and Maxwell were chasing the same piece of cheese.

On the right is Maxwell who is a reddish brown, he is a prankster and loves to play tricks.

The little one at the bottom is Monica, she is very tiny with huge feet which you can't see on this image, and she is sweet, innocent and charming.


Hope you enjoyed getting to know the mousies a little better and you all have a good week - weekend will soon be here again!!!
