Hello Sweet Friend Card Using Close To My Heart Products

Hello friends!  I hope everyone is well and doing something fun today.  It has been raining again in Southern CA, all day Friday and still raining today.  I don't think it has ever rained this much since I lived here.  It is supposed to stop and then start again on Tues and Wed this week.  We need the rain; but it was pouring all day yesterday and our yard flooded again.

I managed to finally create using some of the Now & Forever Special that is one of favorite CTMH that I bought in January.  The sale ended in February and I think most of the items are out of stock; because they were specials and sold out quickly.  I love the Heart thin cut that I used.  I am so happy that I bought it.  I just wish I had bought more of the paper.  I bought the card kit; which included all the products.

Click here for my new CTMH Videos. I added CTMH Workspace Wonder products to my desk a few years ago; and I was not able to use my video recorder on my desk after I did that.  It took me a long time to finally come up with a way to do videos with that same recorder; but on a different arm/holder.  Thanks for your patience.

All Occasion Card Using Conie Fong "Butterfly Princess"

Hello friends!  Spring is here!  Such gorgeous colors with all the flowers blooming!  I love Spring and Fall, my favorite times of the year.  I hope you are having great weather where you are.  

Conie Fong had another New Release last week; but I was on vacation.  I have used Conie Fong "Butterfly Princess"; which comes with sentiments.  There are five different sets to choose from for Butterfly Princess.  Gorgeous set!  I love this sweet little fairy/girl and would love to create her in every color of the rainbow; if I had time.  LOL!
