Hot Coffee Mouse by Sweet November Stamps

Hi friends!  I made this card last month with this adorable digital image by Sweet November Stamps called Hot Coffee Mouse.  It was a freebie for a while but is no longer a freebie.  However, you can still find it here.   


 I coloured this cute image with Copic markers.  The sentiment is computer generated, and the coffee border is from PNG Tree.  

That's all from me today.  Thank you for stopping by and I hope to see you again soon.  I wish you a happy week.  Hugs, Lori xx
