Anita joins Heather and me as Hero Hostesses

Today my friend Anita, whom I met at the '09 ScrapFest at Mall of America, became the 3rd Hero Hostess of the Class of 2011.  See her beautiful card here.

Anita is the bubbly one of the group - she likes to plan fun get-togethers and activities.  That's how I first met Anita, over lunch at MOA during my first ScrapFest.  She organized a Christmas card (2010) and Valentine card (2011) exchange over on Flickr - both were so fun.

So, big congrats Anita!! 

And now for a card - just made this tonight.  I get together with two friends weekly to scrapbook or make cards.  I had a birthday card to make for Karen, a gal who sang in a quartet with me years ago - Rhythm and Rhyme.  We had lots of fun together and I wish her a wonderful birthday coming up on Saturday.

This one uses some new Hero Arts stamps I just love - the Classic Fabric Design and the Musical Clef (set of two) and the Envelope Pattern (like the inside of a security envelope).  The latter was stamped on kraft card stock and then overstamped with the treble clef.  I stamped the Classic Fabric on a piece of Basic Grey paper and overstamped with the musical notes.   Off I go to get this ready to mail!
