Hello there everyone!  I'm excited to be able to share with you one of the cards that I made for Angie and the Little Darlings Booth at CHA.  It features Little Lady Bug and she is certainly a favorite for so many of us!
CHA was incredibly exciting, not only because I was able to work along side my buddies, Angie, Mindy and Sharon (my daughter was even able to play with us for a couple of days) but because it was so fantastic
being a part of the Little Darlings success.  The company, along with Angie, her beautiful stamps and the gorgeous papers, Summer Sorbet and Fruit Basket created by our very own Mindy stole the show!  In fact, the Little Darlings Booth won ANOTHER award!  Such an honor!!  A huge congratulations to you Angie!!
Angie took everyone, including Suzanne and our team mate Sandie out for a fabulous dinner too…and I have plenty of stories to tell…but I won’t…unless there’s cash involved, of course. Winking smile
