Hey All!!!

Today my fellow consultant and friend, Chaunnelle, and I are doing our FIRST challenge with each other! Chaunnelle decided that we would do pattern 19 in the Make It From The Heart Volume 1 book. I LOVE these books cause they keep you FULL of ideas for cards and layouts! 

I was so excited that she suggested that we do this! It will keep me on track each and every week, instead of guessing what project I should be making next!!! 

So, here is the card I made. It is SLIGHTLY different than the card pattern, which I show you in the video below, because I made my rosettes TOOOO BIG!!! EEEK! But, here is the card:
