A Spring Picnic Parade

The Occasions mini has the cutest little hostess set in it - Picnic Parade. I saw these animals, and it reminded me of Richard Scarry characters, which I loved as a child, and my daughter adores now.

I simply used the same layout for my main panel as in the mini, blatently copying the colors and all. Why reinvent the wheel, right? And my challenge for the day was to use the DSP which was a boo-boo from the previous night. I had such fun coloring these animals with my aquapainter! This one is a birthday card for a friend who loves little cartoony animal stamps.
