Dressing Up

Happy New Year!

With no birthdays in January, I've had a bit of time off from making cards - which is a bad idea as I lost my mojo when I decided I would sit down and make something. After moving bits of paper around forever, I gave up and had a blog hop to see if that could get my creative juices flowing again! It Worked!!!!

Something I've never done before.......I've followed a sketch from challenge blog, and I'm going to enter this card!
