Hello, Friends!
Wow! We just arrived home this evening from a wonderful week of family, fun and relaxation at the Outer Banks in North Carolina and I am SO ready to hit the ground running. There's just a little over a week left before the Holiday Catalog goes LIVE and I have SO many ideas to share. If you haven't already gotten a copy of the Holiday Catalog, please message me at shellsuit@verizon.net net with your address and I'll get one out to you jiffy quick. It is FABULOUS!!
Until then, I want to share this sweet card with you and all of the instructions to create it too. These sweet raccoons were created with the NEW "Fox Builder" Punch. I have to tell you, this punch is going to be like the Owl Builder Punch for me. There are SOOOOO many ideas and designs to create with it. It's a definite "must have" if you ask me. It can be found on page 188 of your regular Annual Catalog. Item #141470
