House Mouse and Friends GDT Card

After winning a challenge at House Mouse and Friends recently, I was asked if I'd like to be a guest designer for a couple of months.  Of course I said, "Yes!", and here's my first GDT card for their "Spring" themed challenge which starts today.
To play along you need to use an image from the House Mouse range, those cheeky mice themselves, Gruffies, or Happy Hoppers, and follow the set theme.  You can use stamps, decoupage sheets or something printed from a CD ROM.
 I have a ton of decoupage sheets, so I decided to use one of those to make this cute Easter card, what could say, "Spring" more than fluffy yellow chicks?  The sentiment was from the same sheet.
The papers are Lili of the Valley, Bonnets and Bowties, I think the pastel colours are perfect for springtime cards.
To embellish, I added some blue satin ribbon, a bow, a button threaded with baker's twine, blue gems and lilac pearls.

I'm entering this card in the following challenges -
Glitter 'n' Sparkle - #126 - Anything Goes
The ABC Challenge - E is for Exceptionally Cute
Pile It On - #58 - Adhesive Embellishments - Pearls and Gems
Brown Sugar - #135 - Anything Goes
The Crafter's Cafe - #105 - Lots of Layers
Craft Your Passion - #251 - Anything Goes
