Wacky Wednesday Cards

We are so proud of Gina Painter.  We all love her layouts and now the world has seen a sample of what she creates.  Today, she was on of the people featured on the Little Yellow Bicycle inspiration blog.  There is a reason she creates all our Layouts of the Week and Demo Day layouts.

Bye Bye Christmas cards, we are jumping into Spring and Winter cards.  Now, if only the weather would jump to Spring, I would be happy.   Jill broke out the Pure Innocence stamps for this cute card.  We do have a bunch of these stamps on order and they should be arriving soon.
