Yesterday, I spent the day with Bobby Hagen of Bits & Pieces, who drove nearly two hours to play cards with me! We played cards and so much more: we ate, we laughed, and stamped, and borrowed each other's favorite supplies! Just loved every single moment - and can't wait for our next-time.
Since Bobby is a regular player at CTS, I decided that we should make our cards for CTS together - knowing Chrissy would not mind one bit - right Chrissy?
We had a bit of fun using my Wplus9 Flora and Fauna stamps/dies.
First up, Bobby's card - please hop over to her blog here for her description and supplies list... I think it's just so sweet!
I used the same basic supplies, and a sweet little sentiment from the Garden Fairy set that another sweet friend sent me ... thank you, once more, Lisa! More cards to come!
What do you think?
Gift Tag die from Sugar Pea Designs - a prize from the Coffee Lover's Bloghop, and an added layer from Reverse Confetti.
I won't make you wait another second for Sam Simpson's great sketch - for CAS[E] this Sketch #121:
Are there special things you look forward to each Spring? Tom and I are so anxious for the Hummingbirds at our feeders, and for flowers that will attract the butterflies. Your card could tell a story, too... hope to see you in the gallery this week! One more photo - can you stand it?

Hi Michele. I just love how you used the sketch. I always find it challenging to use a tag on a card, isn't that silly! Love all your pics. I am so lucky to have hummers at our feeder all year long!
