Good Afternoon friends! Hope the day is bringing you many blessings. Currently I am blessed with a quiet house. 2 kids are eating lunch and one is sleeping. Silence really is golden...Anyhow here's a card that I made for the current Viva la Verve challenges inspired by the picture I included on the right. Today I'm trying something knew and adding directions for the card I made. Not that they aren't straight forward but it's good practice for when I submit my creations for publishing. Also what may seem straight forward for me might not be for someone else.
Thanks so much for spending some time here with me and I hope you are having a wonderful day!
