Yeah, I wanted it to look like a storybook, almost like a hardboard cutting craft type of thing. Glad you caught on that! Thank you~!

As usual the amount of detail you put in your work is amazing >v< I have to say I prefer the background in the other version, maybe because of the misty feel it has, but this one is really really good as well.

I enjoy your work so much C:
