Happy Wee Mousey

This cute little mouse always makes me smile.  She looks like she's received some wonderful news and is jumping for joy.  Maybe it's a lottery win LOL?
She was coloured with Promarkers before being cut out and layered onto blue pearlised cardstock cut with Nestabilities.  This was then popped, with silicon glue for added dimension, onto a card decorated with papers from DCWV Glitter Stack which was one of the half price purchases I bought online last week in a closing down sale at WhoopsaDaisy.  I'm unable to post a link as sadly it doesn't exist any more - I hope it wasn't another casualty of the recession.
I also bought some black Stickles which I have tested out on the pebbles but  I may need to be more generous next time for the proper effect.
I'll be submitting this card to the following challenges.
Crafter's Companion 2 - Sketch
Simon Says - Check It Out
Craftalicious 3 - Cute 
Totally Papercrafts 23 - One For The Girlies
A Pocketful of Posies - One For The Girls
A Spoonful of Sugar 110 - Animal Crackers
Going to go and plant up the window boxes while the rain holds off but before I do just want to let you see the flowers that have bloomed on the Yucca in the garden.  Aren't they amazing?! 
Wishing you all enjoy a wonderful weekend, wherever you are and whatever you are doing.
