Seasonal Sayings, Border Banter

It was my birthday yesterday and I took some time off for some retail therapy, brunch with a friend during the day and finished off with a romantic dinner with my DH last night, so I just wanted to say  a BIG “Thank You” to both my customers, friends, family and Stampin’ Up! sisters for […]
