It's almost September!

 I cannot believe it's almost September, it seems the older I get the faster time flies!  Since it is almost September I wanted to share my Some Odd Girl Zodiac Virgo card with you.  I think she is the cutest mini digi around!

I must be very VALUABLE!

I really can not say enough good things about the Crafter's Companion large Sentiment stamp sets.  There is a set for whatever occasion you need and the sentiments are nice and large, easy to use for the outside or inside of your card.
