Hello peeps,
Today I have a double post to save me a bit of time after having one of those nights where I could not sleep and was still awake when night became day, I then must have nodded off and didn't wake up until 10.15am so feel like I'm chasing my tail now lol.
First up, today I am joining those Krafty girls again as a guest designer for day 2 of June's new release Kraftin' Kimmie stamps, and today we are sharing examples of my personal favourites Lu Lu & she's now got a little sister Libby by Cheryl Alger.
Be sure to check out what the rest of the Krafty Girls have come up with - you can find the full list HERE and one lucky commentator will win the full set of these adorable girlies.
