Beauty of Friendship Tutorial

Hello everyone and WELCOME Friday...YAY!!  I hope you've had a terrific week and an even better weekend!  I have a few of my adult children coming up the mountain for a visit on Sunday.  Even better is we'll also be getting together on Monday, the 10th as it is the second anniversary of my son, Adam's death at just 16.  I miss him so much and wonder what he would be doing now.  It will be so nice to have everyone that can make it here, sharing a meal, sharing memories, sharing tears and sharing love....I am blessed!  

I had a few team members up for ONTOUR, which was a Stampin' Up! online event.  I had a couple of make-n-takes for them to create with new products in the catalog and I want to share one with you today!  I also used it as my submission to a monthly tutorial group I participate in!  I LOVE this new bundle, the designer paper is so pretty and I LOVE the new Tailor Made Tags Dies!!  I hope it inspires you to create!
