Lavenders Blue... And Pink Of Course...!

Good Afternoon!
and what a glorious Friday it is, such a beautiful sun shiny day.

Today's card is a sweet little House Mouse stamped image - 'scent of lilac', you will notice that my lilac is n't lilac it is pink, but I am sure there are some pink lilacs out there somewhere, (and if not, there should be)!

I coloured this pretty image with Copics and went for a slightly simpler layout with an embossed and sanded flowery background, a die cut daisy, some ribbon, twine and a button and, my new love, some sequins...

Finally I added a little birthday tag from Lili of the Valley.

So, Happy Birthday and Happy Friday from me and the mouse!

Your coloring is divine, Sue, and what an eye for design and dimension you have! I want to thank you for finding me and joining my blog as a follower and I want to apologize for taking so long to return the compliment! Life stuff and Easter company have put me far behind. It's a pleasure to meet you!! I'll be introducing you in my next post which will hopefully publish on Thursday. Enjoy your day! Hugs, Darnell

I forgot I wanted to make a special point of saying Welcome to Blogland to you, Sue! You have come a very long way in such a very short time, but it's understandable when I see your talent and the inspiration you provide! May I make one tiny suggestion that you move your "follow by email" from the bottom of your blog to up under the "translate" button. I missed it a minute ago and you want your readers to be able to subscribe (as well as follow) so they don't miss it when you post. All the best! Hugs, Darnell
