I think I've been using the "light peach" prisma color pencil for the face & then also coloring the outer portion of the ears with it as well. Then I color the inside portion of the ears with the "blush pink" color. You can sort of see the colors in the 2 cards I've posted here. HTH!

Hi Cindi, I usually use a tan for my faces, feet, hands & tails and just color it over kind of light. I just use my El Cheapo deluxe colored pencils (RoseArt or Crayola)

Hi Cindi... I just love House Mouse stamps. Here are the Prismacolor Pencils that I use:

Lt Peach - I use this for the their face, hands, feet, tail, and belly.
Pink - for inside ears, nose and cheeks.
Dk Brown - I use for the body.
For different color mice I use Lt Umber or Chocolate instead of Dk Brown.

I have a couple of House Mouse Albums that you can check out:

My favorite face colors come from the metallic batch of the Crayola colored pencils. I very lightly color the outside edge of the face and then blend in with gamsol...The pinkish rose one is the color I grab most!

I use the PC 928 (Blush Pink) Prismacolour Pencil. That's the one in the HM colouring tip in the link in 2 posts above.
