Card Swap Link Up

I've waited to post this as some babies haven't gotten their cards just yet:(...You know how it is-- when you are eagerly awaiting something in the mail it takes FOR.EV.ER.  I had hoped they would all be delivered by now.

Anyways, do not worry if you haven't gotten the card in the mail...the linky will stay open and we can revisit it in the summer-- because I plan to do it again.  It was A LOT of fun for my kids and it sounds like everyone really enjoyed it!  

To link up, just do a post featuring what your child received.  (If you are comfortable with it, you can post a photo of your kiddo, too!  Mine are all too happy to ham it up!:)

Thank you to all the kids who participated!  You guys are so special and made this a fun, unique experience...Niamh and Philly now have two new friends.  I hope you all were able to forge a new friendship-- even if it is one that spans the globe!

Hugs!

**New stamps will be in the shop today (probably this afternoon, US time;)...The first card is the new "Murray" stamp. Lou colored her up so pretty! She looks so dainty and sweet! Perfect for your easter cards.

And here are a could more sneak peeks;)...

**And one more thing on the agenda...

I have a digi giveaway here going on this week! Check it out for a chance to put your digi idea into print!...And there is a sweet little thermos up for grabs, too!:)

Before I sign off for the day...here is just the sweetest creation using 'Canary Love'!  Tammy sent me some links this weekend, and I just love it so much!  Look at the plaque girls!!  How pretty is that?!  Perfect accent to a girl's room!  Thanks Tammy, for sharing!  Love your work, hun!...
