Torch: A case to carry old batteries!

Today's card is one that I've been meaning to make for a while.  The image has been sitting all coloured for weeks, but it never quite made it onto a card!

Today however, under the pretence of tidying, I have now managed to clear said image off my desk!


So my card uses a Bugaboo Gus image, coloured with Promarkers, and LOTV tags and gems.

Little Red Wagon - All About Boys

As always a super creation Janice, the image reminds me of the electrician we had recently, we decided he missed out of the class to learn how to smile.
