Three Ol’ Broads

How cute is this threesome. I could name these gals—me being the middle of course. What a fun card.   Glad I don’t have to wear those shoes.

Of course, another card from Saturday's stamp camp.

I cased this card so fast, I didn’t even keep the website but I have seen several variations on the Connection.

Stick Pony

Stick Pony

This may be the most adorable card I have yet to make.  How cute is this charming pony that literally came to life using, ink, paper and a sock stamp? Creativity doesn’t get any better than this. I needed a baby shower card this week and found this card on the Stampin’ Connection.  It’s a variation of a case of a case.  We also made it at my stamp camp on Saturday. Too cute!!!
