You are getting way ahead of my little girl and that is not nice. You know I am old and have a hard time staying caught up. This is darling. Glad you dusted off the WC Crayons.
Shannon, this is awesome! Your coloring on this rocks.. Kittie would be proud! ;) You did perfect with the sketch, too! Thanks so much for playing along!
Peace and blessings,
Holly aka Toy
