Floral Mice

I hope you didn't catch this post yesterday when I stupidly published instead of scheduled and I seriously let the cat out of the bag. You should of seen the panic on my face has I quickly deleted the post.
I blame the excitement of being invited onto the Penny Black Saturday Challenge DT. One of my most favourite challenge blog and which has helped my addiction to Penny Black stamps. I did mention in my deleted post not to tell  my Hubby since I promised not join anymore but my Sis told me to go for it so I blame her.
I'm disappointed in my card I really wanted to impress with my first DT card but the long journey on the weekend took its toll on Mr Mojo. The papers are DCWV Garden Party and I used stickles on the embossed swirls and of course the stamps is Penny Black. OH NO I forgot to colour their tails!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Debby, Congratulations on being picked for Penny Black. I do love your card I have that stamp myself so I should use it. Oh well shame about their tails just tell everyone that they have Albino tails that will make them laugh. Can you please tell me what punch you used for the leaves is that the Martha Stewart punch? If not what punch is it I love the leaves and I'm looking for a punch. Many thanks and have a great weekend.
Hugs
