Wow, 500?? That's a lot of sharing darlin'!! Put me in the hat for those yo-yos please, they are too cute! I wanted to tell you that I really love the latest card you did, it is beautiful. And, those shoes are the bees knees too. Do they hurt your feet? Or do you wear insoles with them? Hope you are well.
