Today's Ramblings: Good morning. Well here we are into May. Hard to believe Summer is on it's way. The days are getting longer, my favorite part is watching the sun rise from my craft room window in the morning, with a cup of coffee, while I am posting on here.
Today's DT Challenge: The new theme at StampFairy Challenge is "Shaker Card". GASP!!!!
If you have never made a shaker card before, you kind Netty's tutorial {here}.
I have been so excited to share with you my very first shaker card. I've had a recycling idea in my head since I first saw the challenge schedule.
