  7. Hi Mary,

    I so LOVE this card and the animal print video!! As always TFS that with everyone. Your videos are the best ever! I just had to tell you that I receive an email from Sizzix every Tuesday. When I went to see what was there for Crazy Tuesday sale I saw a Textured Plate which looks just like your Animal Pattern. I said to myself it looks just like Mary’s Animal Pattern.

  8. Mary, I love the Animal print. This is an easier way to make them rather than using an embossing folder and quicker than getting out everything. Joan

  17. What a great use of the Glimmer paper! I, too, love the sparkle it gives the “v”!

  18. Very very cute. I am usually not much of a bird lover, but those flamingos are sweet.

    I know this is off topic, but what is the name of the script font you have used on your site (below your header and “buttons” on the left. I have tried to find it on the internet but to no avail. I absolutely love it!
    Thanks.

  19. This has so many cute things going on but my favorite is the glittery heart popped in for the letter V – so clever 🙂
