So Happy

Its the first of the month which usually means a new Doodle Pantry release but April Fool's! The new release this month is on April 5, so you need to wait a few more days, lol! But I couldn't resist this cutie pie Clover Worm and needed to make a card for a friend. I coloured him myself with copics for the gummy worm and prisma markers for the clover. They both were too dark so I used the copic blender pen to lighten both, I find that the copic works better than the prisma blender pen. I really like how it lightened both the worm and clover.

I used sakura gel pens on the butterflies. Come back on April 5 for Doodle Pantry's new release and the challenge also begins on April 5 at noon!
