House Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge and Candy Winner!!

Good morning everyone - hope you've all had a brilliant weekend and are ready to start a new week. 
It's my turn to choose the challenge at House Mouse & Friends this week so I thought, after the hurtling around and hopping about last challenge we would have a nice peaceful and easy one this time, so all I'm asking you for is a little embossing somewhere on your creation.


I've even chosen a relaxing image this time - this one is Tubby Bears 
and I've coloured it with Copics. The borders are cut with an MS punch, the flowers with a Crealies die and the swirl with a Marianne Creatable
The papers are Go Nuts from Nitwits. I have embossed the yellow panel behind the image with the Cuttlebug folder 'Seeing Spots'. I also embossed a flower, wasn't happy with the colour of it, took it off did another and forgot to emboss it!! So you'll just have to imagine the flower is embossed with the Swiss dots folder. Please ignore the ribbon,which believe it or not is a pale lavender colour but insisted on looking like it had been trampled underfoot in a muddy puddle.

Now onto the winner of my Blog Hop candy

this is 

number 18
(sorry Random Org. generator refused to be copied and pasted this time
- not having a particularly good week so far am I?)

    Hi Heather,
    I really love your choice of image, I don't have any gruffies, I always forget about them when i'm browsing on line. Yours is so gorgeous and your colouring makes them so life like. A really fabulous card.
    Happy crafting

    The combination of colours is stunning & I love the way you'be given each of the 3 a different olour & each a different coloured towle too. Those embossed crcles look so good with the circles on the paper. The inking of the flower petals is so effective, in fact I think it's better without Swiss dots personally.

    Heather, you are just too funny, but all kidding aside, this is a beautifully colored, and designed card. The flower is beautiful and those little faces come alive with your color work.
