Great sketch - I really had fun with this one. It's really hard to decide which of the two images I'd prefer so I flipped a coin :-) and the winner is Garden Hose Ants!

Great release Images and adorable example cards. The decision is not easy.
I choose Hang In There
Thanks Kerstin

Great sketch, I enjoyed it. Tough call on the image--I love that picture with the hose but will pick instead the Hang in there one, as it strikes me as most useful. Thank you for sharing this fabulous artwork with us!!
