*****I apoligize for not giving you details directions on the last few cards. I've had a combination of being busy getting things ready for the fall kick off of our area Operation Christmas Child, recovering from a medium level surgery(not life or death but still takes recovery time), problems with artiritis in my fingers, and just generally feeling rotten. I hope that you this is enough for right now to keep you coming back. If there is something that you see here that you don't understand how to do, leave a comment and I will try to explain things to you. I'm not trying to leave you high & dry, it's just been a difficult summer.

Hybrid Daisy Bear Card

Again, I'm mixing media. Today and for the next couple of days, I'll be showing you cards that have a digital element to it. Because I am a tactile person (I like to touch & feel things), I don't like to do totally digital cards but I do find many digital elements that are super cute. So, for me, I do a combination.

Congrads Bear
