Mary gave us perfect colors for a festive birthday card! I had a lot of fun putting this one together. I die cut a few presents, put them together and used the ones I felt fit the best. And using the sketch made this go pretty fast.
It was a little challenging getting the mouse's inner ears to not be bright pink, but I used a VERY light touch with a sponge dauber and the Lovely Lipstick. The Mossy Meadow (neutral) is the cherry's stem.
The sentiment is heat embossed in white. I thought the bottom looked a little bare so I added to the sketch and used a few glitter enamel dots in grape.

this is so cute Jeanne- love this sweet little mouse and the sketch you used is perfect for the birthday gifts - I like the coastal cabana striped background paper - I did the same with my mouse ears - used a light touch of the lipstick color
