Dr. Seuss

I remember reading Dr. Seuss books to my son Benjamin as he was growing up. We have a wonderful collection which we now share with our grandchildren. It was fun creating this card for Cut It Up this week - Dr. Seuss Inspired Challenge. [my die cut is inside this card - a nice bow using Di-Namics Bow and Ribbon die cut - I just love this die!]

I will be entering this card in Sentimental Sunday as well as several challenges that are listed below that I believe fit the requirements. Come join me in your crafty creation as well!

Thank you for stopping by my blog - enjoy your week!
