BRING ON THE BLING!

Now how EASY is that? Just create something with BLING on it!! I KNOW you can do that!! OK,before I go, I also wanted to share a SUPER cute DIGI SET!!

One of the Paper Pretties illustrators, Joni Stringfield, has drawn an ADORABLE Easter set called EASTER BABIES. Paper Pretties will be selling this set as a DIGITAL IMAGE SET. All of the proceeds from the sale of this set (minus Paypal fees) will be donated to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation to help find a cure!! AWESOME, huh? This is a cause that hits VERY close to home for our family! My stepson's girlfriend was living with this HORRIBLE disease, until a short time ago!! She was a VERY bright college student studying to be an engineer!! She was awaiting a lung transplant, when she passed away! SO, so sad!! As you can see, by my creation, I already BOUGHT my set!! Hope you will too!! The rest of the PRETTIES have some amazing creations to share with you, so be sure to check them out!! Thanks again for visiting and have a WONDERFUL day!!
