MOUSE WITH A BIG FLOWER

Good morning and welcome to another card and sketch for Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2.  It's winter here in New Zealand and today it feels colder 15c and my fingers are cold typing hopefully they'll warm up soon.

Here is another sketch and yes it's a round card for a change.

Sketch # 279

A quick peek of the inside of the card.  This is an easy card to make,  if you haven't got a large circle die use a dinner plate and cut around it with your scissors 

Remember to drop by Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2.
