Wow, Holy Cow, Tarter Sauce...its been way to long since I have posted to my blog.  I am such a slacker right now.  Well I do have a good reason, but still, its no excuse.  I used to live in Luray, Va and every year they have a Heritage Festival.  My sister sets up with her crafts and this year, I am putting in my cards and gift items to try and sell.  For the last two weeks, I have been locked in my room with the juices a flowing.  I head over tomorrow to drop off all that I have made.  I wanted to make one last special card to take over and it worked out that this weeks sketch over at http://www.creative-sketches.com/ has a wonderful one that went with want I wanted to create.  As a design team member at creative-sketches, I thought my card does it great justice.  Head on over and check out our sketch this week and play with us!!  Here is the sketch for this week:
