Last night we had our monthly crop that I hadn't been to in a quite a while. It was soooo much fun! I didn't get much accomplished though, as usual! Well, this time at least I have a good excuse! It was POURING down rain when I got there and so I didn't take my stuff in at first. Last night was the annual swap where we get to take our unused items and sell or if your like me just take some cash and buy, buy, buy!!! LOL!! So I just spent the first part of the night checking out what everyone had for sale and eating snacks! Then my husband brought the baby by for me to nurse then after that I got busy! Sortof!
A fellow cropper was taking up appreciation cards to give to the local Fire Department and I figured I should at least get a card done for the cause! And that is ALL I did! : )
Here's what I came up with:

Cute card. I love that EPD cartridge. I think I have about worn mine out. Thanks for sharing about your crop. What fun.
ReplyDeleteToo cute!! I love the little fireman and what a great cause!!
ReplyDeleteVery sweet card. Yu did a great job. TFS
ReplyDeleteVery nice! I especially liked the choice of sentiment and the fonts that it contained, since most firemen are men, it was manly yet had a feminine twist. Great choice. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteGreat card, Laurie! So cute, and so appropriate for this time of the year.
