With Love mouse card (Di's Digis image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

I had a challenge for a magazine of creating 7 cards with one 30x30cm sheet of patterned paper. So you may recognise this navy and teal paper over the next month when I post the other cards, a couple are already posted. They are all very different cards so I was happy with my creations and it was less tricky than I expected. 


I used a cloud, grass and some raindrops (up in the sky set) from Flourish with a Bling, my company, click on our name to go to our store if you'd like to check them out. 

The cute image can be found at Di's Digis. I've used it before so have a little photo of my original card below.
