An extra special card

My brother and his partner announced the news that they are expecting their first baby. They are thrilled to bits but Elaine is suffering terribly with sickness - all day, every day. I have made them a congratulations card, I love this lil mouse, have wanted a reason to ink him up for weeks ;-)

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Supplies:
Image - Oh Happy Day! House Mouse stamp from Oyster Stamps coloured with Promarkers
Papers - Cappella by Basic Grey
Sentiment - Craftwork Cards
Ribbon - from stash
Dew drops - from stash
Tools - Scallop & plain petite ovals
