Four Cards...and List of Fours

I have four quick cards to share with you today.  I went to a cookie exchange at Chrissy's last night...yumm.....I can feel the weight gain starting!  Chrissy is my card club buddy and great friend.  She is amazingly talented.  I could have walked around her house for hours admiring her gorgeous Christmas decorations.  As a small thank you, I wanted to make her a set of cards with some of the Verve verses.  I am in love with them.  Chrissy and I chat about how much we love the verses.  My first card is for the Play Date Cafe challenge.  The next three are just to complete the set using a variety of Crate Paper, Verve Stamps and Hero Arts lace.

And...Laurie and Karen were nice enough to tag me for a fun List of Fours...

1. Four shows that you watch: (have to say I don’t watch must TV these days…)
- College basketball (love college basketball…)

4. Four things you've learned from the past:
- If you know someone is hurting, but don’t know what to say, tell them you know they’re hurting, but you don’t know what to say. They’ll appreciate that more than not saying anything at all.
