Just who can turn down a wee House Mouse card, NO ONE!! And this one is the cutest the way you used it. I admire anyone who can color so well with colored pencils; I love the look, especially on animals. I can just hear the HM saying, "Thank You, Lord!"; that was the perfect saying for your scene. The color yellow was one of the things that hit my eye first--the bulb, bow and yellow cardstock fit right in with the orange base card. It was coordinated perfectly and I loved it when you offset the top layer to the right so it catches the looker's eye. Well done!!

Great card. I like the layers and your coloring.

This is so cute. It would be great to color for those that live in cold regions. Beautiful colors.
