My favourite friends

 

   The first Send A Smile 4 Kids challenge of 2025 has the theme 'make new friends but keep the old' and they would like you to use a stamp.

   I have used an old Lili of the Valley stamp which is new to me called 'my favourite friends' and coloured it using ProMarkers. The sentiment is computer generated. I have used paper strip off cuts to form a frame to the design before mounting it onto the card.
