I hope that you have enjoyed viewing/commenting on my GIU cards this week. I have certainly enjoyed reading your comments and especially enjoyed having the GIU opportunity.

Love all the cards you have done this week. I live on the NC coast and it’s that time of the year that the turtles are laying their eggs. So needless to say today’s little guys are my favorite, I’m off to look at this set.

ReplyDeleteI enjoy each of your cards for today but the "Pansies and Sympathies" really knocked me out! Gorgeous! I love the tone-on-tone cardstock and the colored pencil for the flower was fantastic! After seeing your card I put that stamp in my wishlist! Can't wait for it to go on sale!
