Happy Sunday All!
I've been enjoying some quiet time in my 'cave' and would like to share with you what I've been up to!
This week at Joan's Gardens the challenge is a simple one . . .
CREATE A CHILD'S CARD
Well I did one the other day (which I showcased in my gallery over on SCS but will share with you here today) and decided to do yet another card for the challenge!
Here's my 1st card ...
And here is the card I made today ...
I'm just LOVIN' creating these tri-shutter cards and since I'd like to have a variety of them for my craftshow in the fall, I figure there's no time like the present to get started!!
If you need the directions for making one of these tri-shutter style cards, just let me know and I'll work up a little tutorial for you.
