A Special Pair....

Someone very special sent me these adorable little Penny Black mice so I could use them to make my hubby a Valentine's Card. I adore these two and thought they would be perfect for my card!

I coloured them as softly as I could using copics.



It is so cold here and I have just about had enough of Old Man Winter! I sure hope it warms up a little bit! Have a wonderful day and thank-you so much for coming by for a visit!

Aw, so sweet, love PB! Love that background paper and the layout is wonderful!
Cold here today too, -10. School was closed, I suppose that had more to do with walkers and buses not wanting to start! Stay warm.

Ahhhh, what a couple of cuties!! I really like the background paper, so pretty! That stamp is just too adorable and as always your coloring is perfect! Hope you are holding up in all the cold weather. I think of you often - it's been in low 70's here for weeks. We didn't hardly have a winter! Hugs, J:)
