Happy Little Mice

I've had this gorgeous House Mouse stamp for aaages and only just got round to inking it up.  Don't you just love their satisfied faces?!  I've coloured the image with Promarkers (surprise, surprise!)
I had these Papermania Capsule Collection papers still sitting on my desk from the previous card so I decided to use them again for this project as the colours work so well together.
This card was just a simple mat and layer job really, distressing the edges with my Tim Holtz tool as I went, and adding some lace, a ribbon and a bow.
The flower was made with a Woodware punch and a giant brad.
Three gems and a stamped sentiment finish it off.

I'm entering this card in the following challenges -
Sweet Sketch - #153 - sketch


Stampin' Sisters in Christ - #139 - any creature
Craft Your Days Away - #45 - all creatures great and small
Cute Card Thursday - #216 - food or drink

  27. How cute!! I love this image. My daughter's printed a saying to put on my bulletin board. It says. "money can't buy happiness, but it can buy cupcakes and that is pretty much the same thing." Your card really made me smile. Thanks for sharing with the Stampin' Sisters in Christ Challenge. I hope you have a blessed week.
