Gretchen,
I wanted to post a picture of the Garden Giggles that I made on my Facebook page (Stamping with Jayne) and include a link back to this post. I hope that's okay. If not, please let me know. They were just too cute not to share with everyone!
Instead of putting all of mine on baskets, I bought a picture frame that I'm going to put them in. I'll send you a pic when I get it done. (It's been in my brain for the past two weeks and I just haven't tackled it yet.)

I got my kit last week and made Beeatrice the Bumble Bee for my great niece's 3rd birthday - didn't see her reaction but think it was good. Another great niece will turn 7 this week and is going to recieve Belinda the Butterfly. These are fabulous gifts and thought they take a while, very fun to put together - I highly recommend getting the whole package if you don't have all of the punches. Thanks Gretchen...such fun spreading the joy of crafting!!!!

I haven't read blogs in several months, nor written mine, so I apologize for being so late telling you how sorry I am that you have lost your mother.
