Let's Go to the Hop

It's time for another Create with TLC  blog hop. Hi, I'm Rachelle. Although I am the newest member to the Create with TLC design team, I am by no means new to TLC. I have been following the blog and using Paulette's wonderful sentiment since I started cardmaking about two years ago. Being a part of the design team is something I've always wanted to do. I guess dreams really do come true!

Just pop in at each blog and leave a comment and snap up the freebie. You won't be disappointed! There will be cards using those freebies at each stop along the way.....don't miss any~!
