So much fun when you wake up to find everything white with snow in May!!

Spring Hedgehogs~ CGI Sketch Time

Good Day!

Here in Alaska where I live we've got some blustery winds blowing today,
so maybe it will warm up and
melt more of the snow that we still have hanging around.

I'm still doing therapy for my ankle, it's getting better
but going downstairs is the hardest part so 

I just take it slow and easy.....
for an active person it really is a pain in the patooie.

Okay so how about the card for the challenge that we have
going on for Come and Get It

Judy is our hostess this week, come check out the fun cards!

I've have some adorable Penny Black stamps that are kind of small and
they worked perfectly for this weeks challenge so use the sketch,
