Anyhoo Ladybug Crafts Ink started their new challenge on Tuesday and its a WOW {white on white} challenge which made me think that i haven't done one of these cards for a long time so i gave it a go and here's what i came up with...hope you likey :)

Yes i know i have coloured the image but i am sure that will be okay *fingers crossed*

I am not totally happy with the image because as i was colouring i dropped my marker and it landed on my background so i decided i colour it all with the colour i dropped and it made it look a little dark...i know what your going to ask....Why not just print another off??
Unfortunately my ink has run out so i couldn't do that so i just thought what the heck just go with it!!
