Dustin's at it again

Dustin Pike has once again reached out to the crafting world to help make a young girl smile.  He is giving away a free image to make a card for Emily, plus once you make the card & mail it, he will send you an entire SET of images that he designed just for her.  You can read his blog post HERE.   It is always sad to hear about a young child diagnosed with Leukemia, so sending cards to Emily is a sure fire way to make her smile!!!  She loves pink & purple, horses & kitties, so I hope I got it right with this simple but cute card! That horse is adorable!!!!  Thanks Dustin, for always reaching out & helping bring smiles to the little ones faces!!   You are truly an angel!

 You can read Emily's story HERE.

Thanks for popping by! Have a GREAT weekend!!!

Zoo animal challenge - Dustin PIkes Playground

This weeks challenge at Pike's Playground is MY LIFE IS A ZOO. Since I was just in Australia this past summer, and I saw tons of Kangaroos at the zoo....that this would qualify as a zoo animal!!!!

This was the Valentine Kangaroo, I just made a little present and popped it on top of the heart to make a Birthday kangaroo!!!  I made this for my sister who just got back from a year in Australia, she loved it!!!

So, I am entering this into the challenge this week! Wish me luck!
Hugs,
Chris
