Hello everyone on this lovely sunny day. It's lovely to see the sun shinning!! I made this card over the weekend but didn't get around to posting. The sketch I followed was from Mojo Monday 180 however I have missed the deadline for posting due to being slightly late. I love how cute this one looks.

I have coloured with Copics and Promarkers. This card is being entered into the following challenges: D2P Challenge - Oh baby!
