Another QKR Challenge - Giving Thanks

Hi Ladies,

are you behind on your Christmas cards? If so, you need to head over to the QKR blog and enter the great Giving Thanks challenge we've got going on. The prize is 5 digis, enough to give a bit of variety to all those cards!

I made up this lil cutie for this challenge:


The cute little digi is from QKR, and colored with my Copics of course! I made the background with Distress inks (peeled paint, fired brick, frayed burlap, scattered straw, rusty hinge) and some Martha Stewart stamps.
