Hello everyone...I am so happy to finally be back in my craft room!! I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season! Emma over at My Creative Time is having a challenge to make a sports themed project. For the project you can use any Sports cartridge you own and if you don't own one use anything you have and make sure your project has something to do with sports. Well I do not own any so I pulled out a few cartridges and decided to use 3 Birds on Parade. I made a A2 size good luck card for my niece for when she is in her next basketball tournament....I think it turned out cute, hope you do to!! Emma is also releasing her new stamp and die sets this Friday the 20th...head on over to check them out and to see the sneak peaks her and her awesome design team are creating! Hope you enjoy!!
