Hello Friend

Hello everyone and happy Saturday!!! My heart goes out to all those along the eastern shore...hopefully Irene will calm down into a tropical storm and we won't end up with flooding and distruction!!! What a crazy world we live in...too much rain in one area and none in another!!! 
We are going to have a couple of Grands stay with us tonight so I will do a little stamping therapy this afternoon  before they arrive....I will need all the strength I can get...LOL!!!
I made this card last night for a friend who needs a little cheering up...I thought the sweet little girl from Crafty Secret's Couple of Cuties set would be just perfect! She was colored with Copics and the sentiment is from the same set. The papers are from Prima's Annalee collection and the lace and sticker flowers are the only embellishments.
This is for a few challenges:
1. Alphabet Challenge - O for only 3 embellishments (I have 2 flowers and lace)
2. CAS-ual Fridays - stickers (I used 2 flower stickers)
3. Jellypark Friends Friday Challenge - diecuts or punches
4. Blogger's Challenge - Tic-Tac-Toe (I used lace, patterned paper, and diecuts)

Thanks for visiting...have a great weekend!!!!!
