I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for allowing me the opportunity to share my creations with the crafting world. I truly believe that it was because of Lily Pad that my work became more familar with crafters, allowing me opportunities that I never dreamed of. I am so blessed to have met both you and Deborah through our HA group and have learned so much about your sweetness and creative ways. Your videos are a favorite of mine and I have learned so much from watching them on my subscribed channel at You Tube. I love to make videos now as well and I know all the time that can go into such an endevour. So a big thank you for all the time, effort and dedication. Your card today is so fun and cheerful. I love that your cards are so bright and entertaining but yet you make them with such ease, seeming effortless. That is my goal, to do the same thing without having a nervous breakdown! Lol. Wishing you much sucess in all that you hands find to do today and the days to come. Big Hugs.

I have learned so much and gotten so much inspiration. Congratulations and Happy 1st Birthday!
