Happy New Year to my BFF!!

This card is going to my oldest and dearest friend.  Hey Valerie!! I saw this little girl and instantly thought of Val.  We've been friends since I was 10 and we moved into the neighborhood.  We have seen a lot of mischief and promised each other not to tell each others kids.   Our lives are so parallelled it's uncany!!  Well, on to the card.  The image is VN Digital Art - I love her digis! I combined Martha Stewart punches along with my cricut, and threw in the Creative memories cutting system.  Man - with all the manual systems I bot - I still use that - in fact, I still have my original blades.  I have new ones but continue to use the old ones - that's 10 years!  So, thanks for listening to me rattle on and on!!  It's that time of year!  Take care - let's hope for a great year!
