Friends - AHSC 609

It has been a hot minute since I have posted, sorry about that. I was so caught up in Christmas cards and creating workshops that I have not had much time to post here, but I am back and going to try to be more committed to posting here as well as Facebook and Instagram. 

I got a new stamp set from Stampin' Up! called Lifelong Friends, and I could not wait to play with it. I used the Bright and Bold DSP and really love the bright and bold colours. My colour matching on the girl's outfits was not so great, but not too horrible either.
