  2. Hi Jess they say great minds think a like. Well you Shelly have great minds. You both use Emma's Die. I told her how I have this die and still haven't used it. So that means I need to. I have a few Birthday coming up that I could use it for. Any way great card! I love the strips of paper used.

    Oh an congrats on your MCT stamp win. Lucky Girl!
