After she applied her lipstick and started to leave, the little one said, "But Gramma, you forgot to kiss the toilet paper good-bye!" I will probably never put lipstick on again without thinking about kissing… Read More »
I'm still playing with my "My Digital Studio". It is so much fun! I'll have something for you tomorrow (I hope!). Today's card is for my husband's grandson Andrew. The background DSP is such an unlikely choice for a teenager but after seeing Sandy MacIvers' card on SCS, I knew that I would use the same thing.
