The race (and pressure) is ON!



Since CHA is happening right now, The Greeting Farm is keeping those of us who couldn't make it there very busy! There's a relay going on and it's a great way to get free digis. Plus there's an added bonus of an exclusive digi if you complete the whole "race".



I just got WS Charlotte after linking Mer Ian and posting him in the Gallery. He's super cute and a great partner for Mermaid Anya.



When I first saw Charlotte, she looked like she had an attitude and I was going to add the sentiment, "Whatever!" next to her. Then I thought I'd change my attitude and turn her into a Valentine card. And who could you give a "Whatever" card to, anyway?


I hope I can keep up with this relay. It's sure keeping me on my toes! Tune in to see if I survive...

Stamps (for both cards): Greeting Farm digital images, Hero Arts Dots
Cardstock: Papertrey Ink, Stampin Up
Other: Nestabilities dies, Cuttlebug folder, leaf punch, ribbon, heart stickers,
pop dots, Copics for coloring

And a big shout out to Flickr friend Suzanne Czosek (stampersuzz) for getting her Hero Arts hostess apron today! Check it out here. Way to go, Sue! Lookin' goooooood!
