Boobie Love

Afternoon All,

As you may already know I love Saturated Canary Digi's

so of course when I saw on Krista's blog that she had this fab digi called Boobie Love

which you can get here http://saturatedcanary.blogspot.com/

I just had to make a card up with her.

I have used butterflies on my card as I feel they symbolize new life and new beginnings.

Somewhere along the lines we all know someone who has had some kind of cancer
