Tangled Up in Creativity #2
Hi All and what a weekend it has been and now it’s almost over. What with buying a new computer and rebuilding with my softward and files, it has taken almost 3 days to get back up and running with what I had last week. I have a new found respect for the IT people when they say it takes 3 days to load everything. Thank goodness I have a Clickfree device that I use to back up my files. It has paid for itself in spades.
This week, Paige over at She Who Must Stamp set up challenge # 2 for the Tangled Up in Creativity group. We were to do a card using Red, White and Blue as the United States 4th of July is being celebrated this week. The card didn’t necessarily have to be a patriotic card. Hope I am not late in getting to the challenge.
For those of us in Canada, we will celebrate July 1st , Canada Day.
