I colored all of the images with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers, then I used the coordinating dies to die cut them out! I think the mice are just soooo sweet and I love how you can color the images in almost any color combo! i went for reds, corals and pinks! and kept the thorny leaves a neutral, almost light gold!

I used the Music Stencil and some sparkly clear embossing paste to add subtle texture to the background! then I splattered the light grey cardstock with white acrylic paint! (I also splattered white acrylic paint on all of the images I colored and die cut!

lastly, I heat embossed the sentiment from Sentiments of the Season, in white onto some vellum, and then fussy cut it out! I attached it to the card with foam tape!
