It is gorgeous outside today....
perfect temps, nice breeze...
my flower gardens are beyond gorgeous (even with the weeds..lol)
I have been so slow in posting lately...
but have two for today and am working on a few for tomorrow...
I have to do separate posts as they are for challenges....
and each challenge requires a separate post...
So, to get right to it...I made this card for the challenge at City Crafters
to use burlap...
and also in the Challenge at Simon Says "anything goes"
this week they are using Bottle Cap Inc and Authentique products
my background paper is from Authentique :>)
