Spring Time Nap

Hello Friends!!!

Once again I am taking a little "me" time and joining in the cutest challenge
at "House Mouse & Friends" for their "Spring" theme!!


I remember the first time I saw this cute little mouse sleeping in the tulip,
I had to have it....
and it feels good to pull some of my stamps out again.

I got into my scrap bags and pulled a few pieces to match
the pretty orange tulip!
I have been in a peachy/orange mood lately,
maybe it's that "hopeful for Spring" attitude again!
Not sure, but I am loving the colors!!


I colored this little mouser with my Copics,
then cut him out with a Nellie Snellen  doily die.
The stamped sentiment came from my bag of scraps
as well did the snippet of ribbon.

Hope you like my little house mouse.....eeeeeeeek
I am entering him in the following challenges:

House Mouse & Friends .... Spring #189
Pixie's Snippets Playground .... #166
Word Art Wednesday .... Anything Goes #173
Stamp and Create .... Is It Spring Yet?
