So many times I struggle and ponder over the layout and design that it's great when a card comes together so easily like this. I love the hounds tooth paper and themed elements you have included in the design.

Super cute image and I adore the die cuts you used. The layers are awesome and it is truly awesome when things fall into place easily. Thank you so much for sharing your lovely inspiration with us this week at 4 Crafty Chicks Kids Challenge.
