DT Day Meljen's Design - Picture perfect day

TGIF!!!! And it's my turn to post for Meljen's DT post ,  I really really love Fridays and especially with some Meljen's images in them! I decided for this post to use a fairly new image from Melissa that I just adore.  I have to say that I really really love those little mice!!!  And the fabulous  Camera Mouse  is no exception to this. I mean... look at that face!!!  You can't stop smiling when you see a great image like that.  And this is the entire point of this card!  I really hope it brings a smile to the person getting it!

Delicious Doodles DT post - One for the boys

It's FRIDAY!!!!  wooohooo and it's time for a new challenge over at  Delicious Doodles  and this time our challenge for you is One for the boys.
