For my DT card this week I have use another Hope Jacare image called Holly, I think she is just gorgeous....when I was putting my card together our Katie came for a nose & had me giggling...she said .."mommy she is very pretty, but wouldn't she end up with all cuts on her legs from the prickles?" I tried my hardest not to laugh...the little sweetie x you gotta love um!!!

Anyways on with my make for OSAAT....our sponsor this week is none other than Stitchy Bear & the winner will receive three digi images of their choice woohooo!!! so why not get out ya punches & join in...

I do love a gate fold but they are soooooooo hard to photograph!
