Hi, welcome to my blog! I hope that you are enjoying this lovely summer weather. We actually have had two days of sunshine with several more sunny days predicted for the future!!!YEAH! I wanted to try a "box" card...with my grandson's birthday coming soon, today was the opportunity'
I must apologize for the darkness of the pictures. I am having difficulty uploading pictures from my camera so had to use my cell phone. We just purchased a new computer with Windows 8 and I understand that I will have to spend some time on how to upload to Picassa. This usually is an easy process but not with the new Windows 8....
My grandson loves baseball and is on at least two leagues. I hope that he will enjoy this special card.
I hope that I have inspired you to make a box card. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. I would love it if you would leave a comment and even follow my blog. If you leave your blog address, I will come and visit you. Have a wonderful weekend. Hoping you are also able to enjoy some sunshine and maybe even a baseball game!
