Blogging Friends....



Last week I made a special card for a special blogging friend. I have to say something about blogging friends....they are the kindest, sweetest, creative people, and the most helpful when called upon for guidance when using a product you have never used before. Thank-you Dena! In my little world of cardmaking I have met the most awesome people, but in my blog world their are so many I would love to meet in person. I would love to spend a day creating my little heart out.....learning from the best out there!
My gift card holder is one that I made for a special blogging friend. I mailed it off to her on Monday, so here's hoping she will receive my gift to her this week. I made up this card holder so it could hold my gift card from Michaels! Yahooo!


So....with that said...thank-you to all that come and visit and to all MY blogging buddies out there!

Christine! What a sweet gift card holder. That is a fantastic idea and your friend will LOVE it!!!!! I mean who wouldn't? haha!
So here's the deal, you buy a plane ticket and come spend a few days here in hot Texas and we will spend the majority of the day stamping and laughing and of course I will take you outside to thaw out from your neck of the woods! haha!
Hugs to you!!!!

Christine, you are absolutely right. How wonderful to share ideas, learn from each other and share our joys and sorrows. This is so pretty and what a wonderful surprise inside too. Love the image. Have a great weekend. You are such a good friend even though we've never met. Thanks for all your lovely comments. Your good blogging friend Marianne x

A beautiful wallet, Christine! Beautiful imagery and papers and I love your lettering! How about I also hop on a plane and we both meet at Dena's in Texas. Then I can learn from you both!!! Hugs, Lesley

What a super-cute gift card holder. LOTV was our last Copic Creations sponsor and they have such cute images. Hopefully I'll get around more soon but this summer has been busy and now my dead computer....sigh! I'm anxious to post my sewing pics, too, so hopefully I'll have a fixed, or new, computer soon. Have a great week!
