Hi Michele, I love that Create collage and all the shakers lined up. So pretty! Everything you create is just gorgeous. I think I've been following you for a while, but for some reason, not all blogs show up in my dashboard. Blogger has lots of kinks we don't even know about, that's for sure. Wishing you a wonderful day. Tammy

Hi Michele, I'm just getting around to visiting you from Vicki's GYB party. Thank you so very much for following me. I really apprecitate it. I can't believe you have 8 children and 19 grandchildren. You look so young and beautiful. I come from a big family and have always wanted a big family, but it wasn't in the cards for me. I love to scrapbook, too....so I'll be watching you. Thanks again!
