House Mouse Challenge #32 - Something sweet

Another fabulous challenge at the House Mouse & Friends challenge this week.

"Please make a card or anything you like with something sweet on it! This could be using sweet wrappers, an image with something sweet on it (such as apples, strawberries, sweet's, chocolate), you could even use the word 'sweet' in your sentiment, the list is endless."

I wanted to use this gorgeous image (albeit huge) that
Tara sent me ages ago. The image - Juggling Raspberries made me think of jam and I've had this empty Prima flower bucket for some time, great I thought - a perfect size for a jam pot holder. I used little dp as there wasn't room apart from the lid, where I cut out circles with nesties and added a flower and a computer generated sentiment - "Mouse-made Raspberry Jam" . These mousies always bring out the silly head in me!!
