Squeeze til I squeak

I absolutely adore this cute Penny Black. I think PB mice are so cute and cuddly (unlike the mice in doc martens that live in my mum's loft!!!). I have watercoloured them using pencils and cut them out using my fiskars shape cutter (hopefully it didn't hurt too much when the tails were trimmed!!)
I have followed this week's Papertake weekly Challenge sketch and used Basic Grey papers and pink cardstock. I have kept it clean and simple so just a few embellishments to finish it off.
I think the image is possibly a bit big for the card and sketch ... but I love it!! This is a really girly card for me.
