A HUGE thank you to Marie and Jessica for choosing me! and beleiving in me to be a part of

April Davis

Well, let's get started on the COOL stuff :) :) :) 
Oh, and please bear/bare with me, this is going to be a somewhat long-er post!
Be sure to read all the deets ;) Thanks!!! 


So today is also WORLD CARD MAKING DAY!!!
One of the bestest holidays around, right?!
In celebration of WCMD, the new DT, AND a SCS announcement (more details about this below!)
we have a special challenge that ties in with yesterday's Farm Fresh Friday Challenge!
While the DTs cased any of Rachel's card ;)
You are to case one/any of the DTs cards! 

Here's the card I chose, one of Rachel's amazing CAS cards :) 

and here is my take on her card... 

I used Blush Society's "Blush Bonnie" and the sentiment from "Blush Babette"
It seems that the 'clean and simple' look is really growing on me lately :)

Please be sure to add your direct link to your creation to THIS TGFFFC POST!!!
You can link to your creation in the TGF Galleria, Splitcoast Stampers, Blog, etc.
If you are using something other than your blog, please be sure to use keyword:
