I like your idea, and you have a sweet model and a pretty set-up. I wish the one ornament wasn't blocking the girl's face.

This is beautiful -- composition, light, setup, everything. However, I'm not sure the depth of field is shallow; the entire rose looks to be in focus, and the background is black. GORGEOUS image, but since it's a technical challenge I feel like I shouldn't give this the 9 or 10 it would otherwise deserve. 7.

perfect example of a visual pun. And well-photographed as well. :)

Beautiful photo. It's an idiom, not a pun, but thanks to you I just decided that I DON'T CARE, this is too pretty not to rate a 10. :)

Clever idea. Also quite well-composed; your lines are all excellent, including the shadow which adds a lot in my opinion. 9.

Are the eyes oversharpened or is it just me?

1/2 focus -- focus is on the corner of the mousetrap, but is clear
2/3 composition (inc. background) Would have liked to have seen more tail on the mouse, and you can see the thread holding the cheese;, otherwise excellent
1/3 color/lighting -- I like the glow from beneath, but unfortunately it places the mouse in heavy shadow. The monochrome look of the picture is suitable and appealing.
2/2 artistry/emotive/WOW factor -- This is cute and it made me smile.

Total score 6/10
