Returning to my craft table after a long time away recovering from a total knee replacement. It had some complications, and LOTS of physical therapy. But I'm here to report that the therapy team was awesome and now I am better than I've been in decades. The recovery coincided with a gorgeous summer and a yard that had been seriously neglected. So back to hiking woodsy trails, weeding and mowing, playing with the grandchildren...and now back to my craft room.
Seems just right that my first card back is for Atlantic Hearts! I had so much fun playing along with their great sketches and later being on their design team for a year. Their blog has grown and I am thrilled to see all the wonderful cards posted there each week.
Recently one of my grandsons asked the 2 1/2 year old granddaughter, "Are you cute?" Her reply had us all laughing: "NO! I am adorable."
So my entry this week is for AHSC #227 http://atlanticheartschallenge.blogspot.com/

Your card is adorable, Dena! I always loved the patterns and gentle colors in this paper kit, and your embossing pattern, sparkles and twine are the perfect complements. Thanks for sharing with us this week at Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge.
