BFF!

Goodmorning everyone!  I hope you have all had a great week but I bet you're all pleased that the weekend is nearly here, yay!  My card today is for the Totally Stampalicious challenge "for our BFFs"... 


 
 

I used the very sweet Deacon Swing - I love the little hearts, what perfect finishing touches to the image! The sentiment is from the Ladybug Crafts Ink Magnum sentiments - I'm getting a lot of milage out of this set! 

Before I go, I wanted to show you the most AMAZING card that my DT pal, Gaelle, sent me....


Made by my DT pal, Gaelle!
