Receiving an invitation to be a Guest Designer just never gets old - what an honor! This month I will be joining the lovely ladies at Triple B and what a wonderful photo inspiration board they've provided for us! take a look...
Bet you think I'll feature an owl, right? Wrong! I've had a new die, an older die, and this lovely floral set from a friend calling my name ... and so was that pail of flowers in the photo!

I could have made a dozen cards using the inspiration from the Triple B photo board, and all the beauty from their DT. We'd be so happy if you'd play along with us this month as we celebrate all the colors of Autumn using Blooms, Birds, or Butterflies!
