Player Two

A fun image from Dr Digi - Player Two which I've coloured with Promarkers and remarkably found some papers to match the colour of the sofa!  The papers are double sided and are from Craft Asylum which I got with my Sizzix machine a few years ago.


I've added the image with foam pads so it gives a bit of depth.  I'd like to enter the following:
