I was a little worried about the card... because I did my tags first... you have to wait until the week of 11/16 to see those... then I started looking through paper... the second sheet I looked at was the background snowflakes..and the rest of the card was just there in my head... why did I ever doubt! .. Thank you God for answering my prayers today! ... Thank you everybody for looking!! ... I so cherish your comments! Hugs, Jeannie

This is my this weeks Cuttlebug Spot Design Team card and my other card for my dear friend Lisa... she needed a card for another friend at work who loves Crosses... and this worked wonderfully well with my assignment for the week... We had to ink an embossing folder... so I used dark pink in on light pink paper and the Victoria embossing folder... I am really pleased with how it turned out... its a really simple card... since it was so busy it needed to be simple I felt... I hope the Cuttlebug Spot visitors and Lisa are happy with this card! ... be sure and check out The Cuttlebug Spot this week and see what the other Design Team members have come up with!... have a wonderful week! ~~Hugs, Jeannie

A dear friend of mine at work needs two cards for two very dear friends... so I said oh what do they like... One loves frogs... did I walk of with a "oh my gosh how in the world will I ever come up with a good frog card" thought screaming in my head... all I could think of was tree frog... I said to Melia at work how can I make a frog card...we she said Lilly Pad... and I went inside my head again... well duh... so I looked at pictures and this is what I ended up with... I hope Lisa and her friend love it!! .. thank you so much for looking! ~~Hugs, Jeannie

I know the center of the flower really looks different than this...but this is what I went with.
