Hi Everyone.
Unfortunately I wasn't able to join the blog hop – surprise blog hop that is – to celebrate Rita. Rita is a very talented member of the Freshly Made Sketches challenge blog, as well as a Paper Players alumni. She's a fabulous lady and she is at a really exciting time in her life right now. Several of her web friends got together to stage a surprise blog hop. I missed it – but wanted to find a way to celebrate her anyway.
You can read all about the blog hop – and check out all the fabulous cards created in honor of Rita at Lesley's blog . Rita is about to welcome the arrival of Little Laila and we are all so thrilled for her.
Rita – when I heard the news, I was so excited for you – jumping for joy, actually.
So… this is my card for you
I'd love it if you would pop along to Rita's blog and leave her a little blog love. Not only is she a really creative and talented stamper – she's an all round fabulous lady.
(oh.. in case you are wondering where that fabulous sentiment comes from… it's a digital download from Stampin' Up! called Fantabulous You. Appropriate for Rita, I thought!
Warm hugs and prayers for those in need of a little lift tonight. Thank you for visiting my blog and Rita's, too 🙂
Hugs
Jaydee
oh… talking about visiting blogs….. Some of you may remember my Paper Players card in honor of the Queen this last week. Well, thanks to Kelly, I have another one to share with you. Kelly found this on Yapha's blog and Yapha had a link to this amazing card! Thanks, Kelly!

Jaydee, you are too sweet. I feel honored that you took time out from unpacking to make a card. It’s super adorable with that cute frog! Hugs to you and all the fur babies! I love seeing all the pictures of you guys settling into the house. 🙂
What a lovely story about the Keep calm and Carry On poster. Thanks for pointing the way to it.

What a fun frog! I’m so glad you told us where the sentiment came from because i was going to ask. I love it! :o)
That gingham ribbon is so wonderful and just perfect for a card welcoming a little one. Fun card, fun sentiment, fun image, fun layout. :o)
Rita, congratulations! My mom always says if she realized how fun grandchildren were going to be, she would have had them first. ;o)

Great card. I’ve not embraced the whole digital stamping, but I wish I would have picked up the carry on set! Just a fabulous card.
Thanks so much for the shout out! Love your blog!! Super cute frog card, too!
Love the frog on this card. Where did you get his design from?
