It seems like just yesterday, I was taking my oldest daughter to her orientation for kindergarten. Tonight she graduates from community college with a degree for transfer. I am so proud of her. When she was little I would stamp with her and I would try to "Show" her the "Right" way to do it. She would look at me with her determined face and either turn the cardstock sideways or stamp with different colors. She had to do it her own way. The thing is, her style, although different from mine created some fabulous cards. I am proud of her for the strong woman she is. So to make this card I tried to make a card that was so different from me, because those are the cards of mine that she usually likes the best. The flamingo is a sneak peek at a set that will be released by Mark's Finest Papers called FLAMINGOS ON VACATION.

I love the thought and care you put into designing this with your daughter in mind, MariLynn - congratulations to you both on this achievement! The hot pink is so tropical, it just screams "Florida" or " beach" to me...great bg for your flamingo!
