A special friend...

Edit: I forgot to mention...the Cuttlebug flower die used to cut out the flower from Floral Frenzy can be found at Eclectic Paperie right HERE. You cut largest flower die and then stamp the flower inside for a perfect fit. So cute!

Today I have a card that I'm sending out to a very special friend, Nichole Heady. Nichole's work first caught my eye in Papercrafts Magazine. She has such a fresh and distinct creative style. I think every stamper wanted to *be like Nichole*. Then Papertrey came along and oh boy, were our socks knocked off! I fell in love with the company immediately. When Nichole asked me to join the Papertrey Design Team last summer, I literally thought I would pee my pants. I was so excited to become part of such a special family.

So as the wonderful company continues to grow, so does my friendship with Nichole. She is one amazing woman (and is probably blushing at all the wonderful posts the PTI Design Team has posted today...just soak up the love, sweet friend). Nichole's wonderful style and attention to detail has simply gushed over into the Papertrey business. You all can see that every time Nichole has a new blog post or a new release comes out. She works extraordinarily hard and is so committed to the paper crafting industry.

I could go on and on, but what I really want to say is that I think Nichole is just peachy!! Thanks for everything Nichole!! If you want to check out some of the cards that the other PTI girls have created, just click on the links under the Papertrey Design Team at the left.
