Our Guest Designer ~ Mary

Good Morning!  Mary is our guest designer this week.  You can view her winning card found here.  Mary made this super cute card for our 3-2-1 challenge.  This week's challenge we are creating cards using' 3 shapes (can be all the same or different), 2 pattern papers, and 1 ribbon'

Isn't this just the cutest card ever?  I love those owls, they are adorable!  Be sure to stop by and visit Mary's blog:  Krafting Mama

  
My name is Mary W.  I work full time as an ID tech, both fingerprinting and identifying people who have been arrested.  I have been married for almost 30 years and we have 3 kids aged 28, 25 and 15.  I started crafting about 5 years ago when I got the baby Cricut as a Christmas gift.  I was hooked!  Since then I've gotten the Expression and the Silhouette Cameo.  I usually only have a chance to play with my toys one day a week - I wish it were more!!
