OWH Sketch #42

Hello Bleeps!
 I made this card for Operation Write Home's Sketch Challenge. I love,love,love this stamp set from Stampin' Up! .....it's called Greeting Card Kids. Isn't this the sweetest image? I used this button that I got from my grandma a long time ago.....she gave me a whole bunch of buttons......she's the sweetest too ;
Oh,and I noticed that I grabbed the wrong blue for this card....I water colored with Baja Breeze....but used Marina Mist blue instead....oh well that's the way things go sometimes!!!!and I also noticed my card is basically red,white and blue,LOL!!!
Here's the sketch they gave us.....


and here's my take on it! Well,thanks for visiting me today and have a great rest of the week! ;)
