Happy Monday to ya! I smell a nice LONG weekend coming, what about you??? I am so excited! But I am even more excited about the card I have to share today! This card was truly a labor of love! And boy did I ever labor over that ribbon... lol... It was a bear! But I have to say I LOVE the results! And even better, most of the items I used today were found at my local Big Lots! And no, I do not own stock in the company... though I should! The stamp I used was a $2 score along with the chipboard stars (for $1.00). You can't get any better than that! In my experience, you have to keep checking their crafts supplies because it does change frequently. However, you can get some great things there! And one of our dear alumni (Miss Mabel the St. Bernard) will be featured in this weekend's ad). So if you get the Big Lots circular, check it out! She will be modeling a foam pet bed! I received my email today with her lovely mug in it! So I have two reasons to hang out there... lol...
Well on to today's card...
