This Card Was A Workout!!

I spent a lot of time coloring this adorable little fellow...the first time...and a over-filled Copic Blender marker DRIPPED on it. Need I say more??? SIGHHHH! I was sooooo sad and put the destroyed little buddy aside. After much sighing and thinking I thought I'd just give it another try. Here's the result and these are the challenges I'm going to enter him in:

Penny Black Saturday Challenge - Boys, Boys, Boys**

Crafty Catz 237 - Anything Goes**

Simon Says Wednesday Challenge - Anything Goes**
