Happy Little Mouse

I had this post ready to go yesterday, just needed to insert the picture of my card, and I started having computer problems.  Oh well...computer behaving now, so here's my card.  I originally followed the Pixie Cottage #58 sketch, but that deadline was last night.  This week's challenge at Pixie Cottage is a spring theme (and/or their weekly sketch), so I'm still going with my same four challenges!  I love all my little House Mouse images, and this little guy is colored with Prismacolors with chalks for the background.  The flowers are made from punches.  Sentiment is from Flourishes.

Challenges:
Pixie Cottage -  Spring
CR84FN - Color scheme
Paper Play Challenge - Use a sentiment
Everybody Art Challenge - Spring

Stamps:   House Mouse Throwing Daisy Petals, Flourishes Humming Along
Paper:  Basic Grey Lilykate, HOTP
Ink:  Colorbox Queues, Memento.
Accessories:  Spellbinders Fancy Tags and Circles dies, MS lattice punch, Stickles, flower and leaf punches, foam tape.
