Winnie & Walter July Leading Lady Week 1



Hello, dear friends!  I'm soooo excited about this post!  A few months ago I received an email from Shay at Winnie & Walter asking me if I'd be interested in being a Leading Lady.  After screaming for a few minutes (thank goodness I was alone at the time lol!), I emailed her back with a very hearty YES, OMG, YES!!!  If you've followed my work for any length of time you know that Winnie & Walter is one of my favorite companies and I just love using their products!

Here's a peek at one of the cards that I'm sharing today on the Winnie & Walter blog!  My first post is all about using your dies in creative ways.  I hope you'll stop by their blog and check out everything I made for my first performance!




Be sure and leave a comment on my blog today for your chance to win a $30.00 gift card to Winnie & Walter!  I'll be drawing a random winner at the end of the month, and you never know, you could be the lucky one :)
