Cocoa Mouse Birthday Card

Hi Everyone,
Today I have a Birthday card using Cocoa Mouse from Sweet N Sassy Stamps. This card is for my Bestie and her B-day is in Dec. I used the tea sentiment that is included in the stamp set because we spent many enjoyable hours together over a cup of tea. Okay, so here is her card.
I used the Sketch from Simon Says Stamps and I followed pretty closely. It is a nice sketch and gives you lots of room to be creative.
I made the base card out of textured white CS, the dot and check DP are from Debbie Mumm. the teal CS is from Bazzill. The ribbon is from Stampin' Up. Here are a few close ups for you to see all the details.



And, I thought you might like to see the inside too.
Challenges of Cocoa Mouse Birthday:

Hope everyone is having a great day. It is very cold here: in the high twenties....BBRRRR.
