Hugs

Fortunately, I don't get sick very often, but yesterday was pretty much lost as I recovered from the night before.  I'm 99% better today so had to play with my new SSS goodies--Spring Flowers & Painted Hugs.  
I made a circular shaker card to enter SSS Flickr Challenge #47. Hugs die cut is stacked 3 high & clear embossed. Simple, but fun card that can easily be mailed to a blogging friend. I'm also entering Twofers  & HLS Anything Goes with Dies.  

My hanging basket has grown like crazy & is so gorgeous this year--thought you might like to see it. Hubby picked out the perfect one!  Thanks so much for stopping by.

  14. Shake, shake, shake, what a fun circular card. Your flowers are gorgeous! I was thinking of getting a nice bouquet of fakes for the front of my house (full sun all day and 110 + temps probably mean any real ones won't last an hour).
