It's a new month so that means new stamp releases!  To start off I will tell you my theme for this month................spinners, ribbon sliders, and ribbon message pull cards so this month you will see cards that spin, slide and pull!  One exception this month I couldn't resist doing a gel card with the Koi fish.  You can see a tutorial for gel card here and here on Speedy TV. please visit Patty's blog here to see one of my spinner cards in action. It's time to check out Janine's blog to see her swimming fish or ying yang projects.
