My wonderful friend and upline Crystal is one of the most generous people I know. I think “Give” is her middle name. If that isn’t enough, she’s also more fun than a case of wine, a full box of chocolates, and the entire Stampin’ Up! catalog rolled into one! (OK, maybe not the entire catalog.) When we get together to stamp, we always laugh more than anything else.
This card is one of a number of samples she made for me when the Idea Book and Catalog preview came out. That’s how she is – if she makes a card for herself, she’ll make one for me too. She makes the cutest cards and I’m always thrilled when I show up at her door and she holds out a little stack just for me.
