Suger Mice and all things nice.


Although I am definitely not a Royalist, even I have to say that the Royal Wedding was simply beautiful.  So with celebrations in mind and  this weeks recipe at the Chicken Soup blog, I created a super cute celebratory card.

For a change, I used  subtle pastel colours that complemented the Kraft background paper. The cute mice stamp is from the Lilli of the Valley range which again was coloured with Promarker Pens and a little stickles for the icing sugar.  Faux stiching was added to the edge and a string bunting.

I will be in celebratory mood for a few days longer as I prepare three different types of cupcakes for my darling Son's 16th Birthday............I knew I shouldn't of started the diet this week!
