Fly me to the Moon. This gorgeous free mouse image is from Gerda  Steiner Designs  if you participated in last months challenge. She has the cutest images so if you want some free join the challenge each month.For this card I rotated the image and printed a large and small version. The background was found on line, printed to size and I stamped the bats and added more grass. I hand drew the pumpkins as I couldn't find any I liked and coloured everything with copics. Layered it on cream and light teal cardstock then mounted it on a darkbrown card base. The edges are inked and distressed and the sentiment computer generated. Copics: Mice: W1,3,5.
