A Birthday Card and... more Mice !

I received my new Penny Black stamps a few days ago, so I had to play with them ! This is a Birthday card I have made for a friend using the cute mice from "Critter Party"...

The papers are from the "Kraft Funday Happy Days" paper pad from My Mind's Eye, the "Stamp Sentiment" is from Whimsy Stamps and the flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts.
My card will enter the challenge "Something New" with Party Time Tuesdays, "Anything Goes with Option Something New" with PaperTake Weekly Challenge, "Anything Goes with your New Stash" with Fashionable Stamping Challenges, "Let Them Eat Cake" with The Secret Crafter's Saturday Challenge and the challenge with Try Stampin on Tuesday as I have used their sketch to make my card, here it is... (I have rotated it)

Happy Crafting !

What a cute Birthday card! Love the Stamp (as always), Love the way you coloured the mice' stamp (I believe is not that easy), love the way you coordinate the whole things (perfectly done)!!
