Good morning, thanks for popping by. Today our 
new challenge starts on Make My Monday.
Dawn has chosen #104 Use Shapes on Your Card.
Please pop over for more details and to see the various
shapes created by the design team.

die cut word 'Sending' by blending 3 DIs - 
Twisterd Citron, Fossilized Amber and 
Abandoned Coral - amazing names.
The stamps are Birds Inchies by Inkadinkado.
A little glitter, why not? A black gem for the 'I' dot.

yesterday and already there is a drop in temperature.
Hunting out my cardigans - keep warm and stay well.
