For we walk by faith not by sight

2 Corinthians 5:7

This is the second week that I have been asked to contribute to The Cheerful Stamp Pad. Today I have made a card using a digi from BB Kakes. It is called bb-watering boy and is also available in a girl version. he papers I have used are called Mac mini prints by Bazzill Basics Papers. I have coloured the image using Promarkers. I have mounted my design onto a hunkydory shaped card that had been lurking in my stash for some time.
