Welcome our guest Designer and Another CAS Card

Ya know...some weeks I have it and some weeks I don't and SOME weeks I have it... but I forgot where I put it! Well, that is what happened to me this week... so I am posting my clean and simple card a little bit late. I water colored my dragon and cut her out. The I added the embossed "reptile" paper and the ribbon. Since I just had my anniversary... I needed to add the hearts...lovey dovey!

So that is my card. I was worried that clean and simple might be hard for me... but I rather enjoyed the simple process and i am pleased with the result!

Now... lets give a great big warm Woodware USA welcome to our guest designer for April, Wendy Stamey . Please make sure you say Hello and stop by her blog to check out all of the gorgeousness that can be found there! Truly inspiring! Well... thanks for letting me be late and keep watching this spot for a fun Thursday challenge for our designers!
