Love Actually

A card for a few challenges from me today:
Create4fun - sketch
By the cute and girly - love
Creative Card Crew - Valentine
Cupcake challenge - four legged and furry
Passion for Promarkers - all creatures great and small
Papertake weekly Challenge - love actually
Simon Says Stamp - photo inspiration
Whiff of Joy - love
Stampavie and more - pink and brown
Henry was stamped and masked so I could add the roses. I used my promarkers to colour him, red I find particularly difficult to shade with ... might need to buy a few more reds!!! I used my nesties to cut the image, squares and mats out. I added some brown organza ribbon and tied some red organza knots. A couple of roses and punched leaves to finish.
He does look a happy mouse doesn't he!!

Recipe:
Stamp(s): Whiff of Joy Henry holding a heart, Magnolia roses
Colouring Media: Promarkers
Papers: Basic Grey Infuse and blush
Embellishments: roses and ribbon from stash
