You should have arrived here from Archana's blog. If you didn't arrive from her blog and would like to join in the hop, please start at the Sentimental Sundays challenge blog.
For my card today, I used Clown Owls in Car by Pink Cat Studio.
The card itself is very simple, because I got lost in coloring this image and I couldn't find the right patterned paper in my stash that would work well. I do LOVE the way it turned out though, it's bright and cheerful and PERFECT for this day/occasion!!
AND......I have a bit of candy to giveaway!!!
