Fabulous take on the sketch! And I love the purple--a color I rarely use either. Love your polka dot banners and the sentiment at the top with a button!

Fabulous, Audrey! Your coloring is just delicious, and the purple really looks great. I have a hard time using it, too, but it looks fantastic here! Love your banner button combination. So glad you joined us for this month's Cloud9 Blog Hop!
