Congratulations! PPA156



I am mailing this card to a friend who is expecting a baby boy any day but it also sends congrats to Lesley Croghan - the featured stamper this week at Splitcoast! In keeping with the Featured Stamper Challenge I was inspired by a card from Lesley's gallery.  I chose this card - kept the oval focal point and updated with banners.

 Do you know Lesley?  You do if you have visited Freshly Made Sketches.....or Dynamic Duos...... or the Paper Players......or Merry Monday.....or Seize the Birthday. She started them all!  Another challenge team will debut soon - be on the lookout for Fusion!  Perhaps you saw the full scale production of Oklahoma that she recently directed.......or perhaps you have a child in her classroom.......or perhaps she designed your blog......

 Now you know why the Energizer Bunny is always on the move - he is trying to catch up with Lesley! 

                  Pals Paper Arts has a sweet springy color challenge this week!

    I love this card...I may make color changes and CASE for some baby girl cards I need! The banners are perfect and I love the oval focus! Now I'm worn out from reading all that Lesley does! :)

    Your card is adorable Linda! Love the sweet sailboat and the banners you have added! Yes, the energizer bunny keeps nipping at my heels...but he will never catch me. :) Have a great day and thank you for helping me to celebrate!
    Hugs!

    Linda love your little card and the I really love the banners. Cool.
    Yes I do know Lesley ... via the internet that is! She certainly IS a busy gal! I knew she started a few those listed, but not all! Holy Moly!
    On a side note, she did design my blog and I drive a Fusion... does that count?
    Hugs.
