    What a great combo of papers, design, textures, humor, ribbon and that oh-so-cute border punch. Good video tutorial, too.  It helps those of us who are visual learners.

    Love that sentiment. Maybe it's just me but I hear Joey from "Friends" when I read it! 😀 The texture on the jute twine is great. Love it!

    I'm getting so many great ideas to try, on the new cards I'm learning to make from all these lovely artists!

    Love this!  All the repeating elements like circles and scallops  are all tied together with the jute!
