Thanks & Inspirational

Hi everyone! Here's a thank you card I made yesterday for Dawn's Raspberry Suite Color Challenge 2.

Edited to Add: The layout for this card comes from a gorgeous card Teri Anderson created in Paper Crafts magazine (June/July 2008, p. 85).

Here are Dawn's colors this week:

I got a nice email yesterday from Julie Allain. She asked me to join the Inspirational Team. Since I love looking at SO many blogs, I thought it would be fun to write articles showcasing the talent of so many great paper crafters.

Thanks for looking!
