Hi Everyone. Happy Sunday. I hope you are all enjoying your weekend. It's the fabulous Nance's turn to host our Paper Players Challenge this week and it's tic tac toe week!

It's the very talented Barb's turn to host our Addicted to CAS challenge this week and she has a very timely code word for us: Now... as I am waaaay past the age of having school aged children nor do I have grand-children, I had to think outside of the box for this one! I pondered and pondered and decided to go look in my DSP stash to see if anything would inspire me. Voila! I had the perfect DSP featuring a school..... of fish :-) So that's what I went with :-) The paper was... Read more →
