Using up scraps…
I embraced the current Embellish Magazine Crochet Trim Color Trends Challenge, that is, I drove down the street to buy some crochet trim only to come home and change my mind to use the one that I already had… work…
An Easter Card for… Easter!

CSC35 – Happy Mother’s Day
So I’ve been struggling with this card for a couple of days… you know, look at it, shuffle papers around, stamp a bit, get all my ribbons out… then put them back! I was determined to do the pretty / busy…
