Hearts A Flutter

Another sneak peek of some of the Spring catalog items.  I am loving all of them and trying to get my stash built up for some of my swaps.  This will also be a card made a stamping group the end of Jan. With working full time also during the week I am trying to get ahead for my workshops.

Thanks to Nakaba Rogers for this great idea - http://notesfromnaki.blogspot.com and to the Pals Paper Arts for the sketch ideas - http://www.palspaperarts.com/. I turned the sketch on end and use our new Hearts A Flutter stamps and framlelits. Very simple and very pleased with the turnout.

Merry Christmas to All

Wishing you had a Merry Christmas  today. Was very quiet here.  I made homemade noodles from my grandmother's recipe, did some crocheting on a bay afghan I am making to have on hand, and some cards for the BRAK girls on SCS. Also did a couple cards for a swap group  I own. Below is the card for the Color challenge swap in that group: Cajun Olive Breeze.
