Chick Chat


It's been a cold, windy, wet and wild weekend here and we're bracing ourselves for temperatures in the mid 50s tomorrow.  Brrrr!  A good day for bustin' out the space heater in the Craft Cave and gettin' my card on!  I got a couple of special order cards sorted out this weekend and one challenge card for the Colour Throwdown.  I was so happy to see a colour palette that didn't include red or pink.  :)  I used the sketch from Skipping Stones Design and a few stamps from their cute Chick Chat set.  Now off to watch the rest of the Grammys - don't want to miss Adele's performance!
