Hi all, it's Christi here with another spring card. Since moving I have found {and am STILL finding!} a bunch of craft and card making items that I'd forgotten all about.

5" x 7" white card base

Tutti Rose Frame Die, #TUTTI-178
Tutti Birdies Trio, #TUTTI-102

experiment with making projects that include colors, techniques, and

join me on this journey! Thanks SO much :)
