House Mouse!

This stamp has to be one of the cutest I've ever seen! It's a House Mouse image of Amanda lifting Monica up to blow out a candle, and DH and I chose it in my birthday spending spree.

As usual I've left things to the last minute with my challenges - I may have missed the House Mouse deadline, but I've done my best. I was in bed with a migraine most of Saturday, and out yesterday buying gifts to take back to the UK next week. I had a wine-tasting and DH had a coffee-tasting which I never heard of before. We both did the chocolate-tasting - I love the Swan Valley!

We also spent time in Bunnings, the DIY store here, getting materials to make up a board to go behind my craft desk to protect the cream walls of our rented house. I now have a cork/white board. How cool is this? Thanks DH!

So on to the card. Isn't that adorable? Hehee.

The background is swiss dots embossed with my Cuttlebug. The papers are all scraps, including the hearts, and the sentiment is computer printed. The image is coloured with Copics. I'm entering it into these challenges:
