Ants in Polka-a-Dot Booties

Hi, doesn't that title grab your attention, lol.

Well that is exactly what this image did to me when I saw it.

This month at the Crafty Awesomeness Challenge our

sponsor is SasayakiGlitter, so I got to use one of these

adorable images. 

Once I saw those cute ants with their polka-a-dot booties I knew I 

had to color this image, it is called Heart Ants, it made me think of Spring
coming.   I used my Copic Markers to color this one.

Originally my thought was to have a red and white checked background but

when I laid them together it just did not look right.  So I went with the bold

look of bright yellow and red.  Love the way the colors go together and

how they pick up the colors from the image.  I embossed the yellow panel with 

A Cuttlebug swirls embossing folder. The black strips across the top are ribbon.

I created this card using a past sketch from  

My Favorite Things Sketch Challenge and is also one of the sketches

I am using this month for the Sketch Challenge I am hosting over at

the Crafting Circle message board.  Would love to have you come and 

check it out and maybe join in if you need some inspiration.  It is a challenge 

that runs all month long and showcases 4 sketches and some extra credits

to get your mojo pumped up.  

I hope you like my card and leave me some love.  Hope to see

you at the challenges I mentioned above.
