It was so cold and windy last weekend (by Sunny Southern California standards) that I stayed inside and played with my cricut. I made all the flowers with the Cricut Flower Shoppe cartridge. This is my DH's aunt. A couple of weeks ago she celebrated her 88th birthday. Sadly we have learned that she has lung cancer and the prognosis is not good. So even though her b-day is in the middle of winter, I decided to make a bright Springlike lo to honor her b-day. She loves yellow roses. TFL - you are ALL so very kind.
