CASE of Laura And A Photo


Hello again, this is my second post today.(Tag and Bookmark)
I couldn’t wait to CASE this amazing card of Laura’s
So happy Papertrey Ink is having this fun challenge.


 I was not sure about stamping this flower in black as it was so bold but I think it worked ok. I used Copic markers to color the blooms.


A few times a year, I am lucky enough to get together with some wonderful ( and I do mean wonderful ) blog friends! Joyce is kind enough to host this event every year.  Kim is so sweet to fly in for this all day fun event and Cathy and I chat the entire two hour drive to Joyce’s house. We laugh and craft!



Thank you very much for the visit today !
God Bless!
