This is an ATC swap where you have to take a postal stamp....and incorporate it into the design of the card! This was fun! You can get imaginative and there are lots of fun postal stamps out there! I look forward to my returns on this one! Hugs,Patti :0)

Amber bought a RAT! Can you imagine!? I thought I would hate it, but she is really quite the charmer! Hehehehe! She is black and white like a Holstein cow......and she has a very SWEET temperment! It is the tail that is gross to me! But she is sweet......and so her name....SWEETS!

What can I tell you! Amber likes her and that is the most important thing! Do you think she is cute??? If your answer is no.....I guess we better stick to the ......"If you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all!" Cuz I don't want Amber crying! :0)

Here are some cards I created for friends birthdays etc! The images are from the digital collage site....here is the link......as well as the butterflies! :0) Great fun!
