Happy little accident

This morning I was making a thank you card for my sweet friend McKenna who was my Secret Santa at work. She left me such thoughtful gifts I wanted to give her a proper thank you.

I stamped this little Changito with Momento black and colored him with Copics to match my designer paper. Pretty cute huh? Well....I was trimming the image and cut too close the the top edge (insert colorful language here). I decided to trim around the flower and I LOVE the result! It was kind of long and boxy before I got trim happy. I think it's much more interesting now.

Embrace the imperfections in life :)
