Hello, friend

Good morning friends!   I like to post come of the cards I make in one of the digital scrapbooking Facebook groups that I belong to every now and then because I think the comments I get are hilarious.  Things like..."I don't know how you make stuff with paper, it's so time consuming." or "That is so cute but I just don't do things with paper anymore.".  Well, I posted one card a week or so ago and a digital scrapbook kit designer asked me if I made many cards which lead to a conversation, a look at her blog, this cute owl image and Tamara asking if I'd like to make a card with one of her images.  I said, of course and got right to work!  Oh, the name of the digital stamp company Tamara and her sister have started is Stitch and Hootch
I used the CPS sketch for this week on this card using the tree as the element on the top.  I gotta tell  ya I really like this card.  I think it is fun, simple, and just darling!  Taylored Expressions just had a video out on how to use their dies a little more effectively so I decided to try it out.  While not perfect just yet I did a much better job than normal on this one!  Practice makes perfect so you'll probably start seeing more die usage on my cards!

Alright, that is it for today.  I have to get my workout in early today as we are taking a friend for her knee surgery later this morning.  Have a wonderful day and see you on Friday for the Designed2Delight new release blog hop...you are going to LOVE the new images!

Happy to see one of your creations, Lorie. It's been a while and they always make me smile! Very cute! Love the die cuts and you did a wonderful job. Isn't it great how we can hook up with all kinds of people from many different places through the social media. Love the connection. Have a great day!
