lucky me...


I've been loving the clean & simple look ...


I also love sentiment-less cards...
it's all about the handwritten note on the interior...

a big shout out to the FAB Ginger
She sent me a Sweet 'n Sassy Gift card and I picked up a couple die sets and a digi stamp...the hearts on my card
were made by a die that I picked up over there...Thanks soooooo much Ginger!!!  She is who introduced me to Sweet Sebastian...there's a new update on Sebastian....can you believe that he received over 500 cards and packages...you know what?  That makes me so genuinely happy...there is so much goodness out in the world...soooo many kind people that will take time out of their busy day to make a little boy smile....that, my friends, is priceless.  I'm pretty sure that Ginger didn't know what she was getting herself into when she did that shout out on her blog about cards for Sebastian...the ripple effect...it is a wonderful thing. 

This is a multi-tasking card:

I've been trying to keep it simple lately too - but you my friend, are rocking this style. This card is beautiful. I love how you die cut and filled in. I just used a similar technique on a page I made. It's one of my faves so as soon as I saw this I was swooning!
