Hi Francine,

I loved your card and pretty loved your video. Your french accent is so cute.
The stamp-set I like best is whimsical wheel. Although I did not like it that much when I first saw it, now I love it.

I'm just discovering Create A Smile -- and YOU, through their Blog Hop (wonderful & creative card!), and I'm so excited to have found both! My favorite Create A Smile stamp set is "Your Frame" because it's so versatile, with adorable images (who doesn't love puppies, kitties & birdies?!) and fun greetings!
I love how you made the stars come out of his hat! My favorite sets are Smiling Snowflakes and Cool Buddies... They are both so cute!

Hallo Francine, deine Karte ist mal wieder ganz wunderbar geworden. Den Hut so zu nutzen ist wahrlich eine Inspiration. Danke dafür. Englisch ist auch nicht meine Muttersprache und so kann ich nicht beurteilen ob du alles richtig gemacht hast - ich habe aber alles verstanden :-) und wie du es gesagt hast, finde ich ganz liebenswert! Liebe Grüße - Tanja
