I thought you might need a break from flowers, so let’s go with something that may eat them up!

It comes with 4 dinosaur images and their skeletal bodies, along with …
I love this cheery and fun card I made for my 3-year-old niece. I used 6 different stamp sets – the most I’ve used on a card!

For this card, I used Cheerful Critters for the bunny image, Cupcake Party for the cupcakes, Dotty Angles …

Did you do a double take on yesterday’s post? I posted the same card back on October 2 and forgot I had already posted it! Does that mean I’m just too busy and I’m forgetting things? Sure hope not!

I made a couple of changes but kept the color scheme and design which I thought was great. I gave this card to my nephew who shares the same birthday I do. Although he’s …
