I am in a group of 6 ladies and we trade going to each others house the last Friday of each month. The hostess provides a project to make (usually a card) and we share ideaÂ’s, new cartridges for our Cricuts, and share cards we have made and received, We also provide something yummy to eat at the end of our time together. This month was my turn to "Hostess". Everyone has been challenged with the punch around the edge with the Martha Stewart punches so I gave them the paper sizes and then let every one practice, We also played with my new bow maker toy called the Bowdabra (the mini size, from Walmart) and everyone made bows with it. We then made this project card, I had precut it and embossed the front piece and they just assembled it, stamped and put on the bow. It would take far to long for us to make the project from scratch. (we all prepare the sameÂ… it is like getting ready to teach a class :-) SOOOO here is the card they all made last Friday! I had company until yesterday so that is why it is not being uploaded until today.

I to wish I could be a part of your group. I too have a group of friends that we get together on the last Thursday of each month and do the same as your group does. We however start our day off with Tea and something sweet from the oven. Then start making our cards that we all have eveything cut and what ever for each other to make cards. Then we do a light lunch and go back at it working on cards. Its fun way to spend a day with close friends. I Love Love Love your card and that Embossing folder you used.
