A Song in Your Heart - Great Day to be Alive
http://asonginyourart.blogspot.ca/2014/04/a-song-in-your-heart-challenge-6.html

I was inspired by the country sound of the song and decided to create a card with a country themed image.

The image that I have used is Dottie Two Step from Bugaboo Stamps.  I have coloured her with copic markers.  The background paper is a new one that I bought while on holiday last week - can't find where I put the pad to find out what brand it is!  I have also used some grosgrain ribbon from American Crafts.

I know the sun's still shinin
