Yippie! I finished a card for The Sugar Bowl Challenges. Today's card is a bit different, as you can see, I have added my own little tear bear to the image.

I hope you like it, it's a twist and something I hope you haven't seen before. I always try my best to put a unique piece in my work, and I hope this shows.
