My friend, Jessica, asked me for some thank you note cards. She likes the smaller Note Card & Envelope size, so I’m creating a variety for her. I thought I’d start out with this one, using the Butterfly Gala stamp set and coordinating Botanical Butterfly Designer Series Paper ~ I…
I was NOT going to craft today! I have so many other things that need to get done. But that frog kept looking up at me, and I couldn’t resist! My husband says I’m addicted…maybe?…but not a bad addiction to have. I prefer to think of it as a habit…
