A real CUTE TROOP! ;)

Today's post is extra, extra special :) This is my Ode to Kadie post!




















I am truly honored to have met some wonderful friends in this journey of crafting and meeting Kadie on the SCS last year is certainly no exception :) My daughter, Victoria, is a Girl Scout and when I saw TGF's Cute Troop pop up at the farm, I was so very excited! I knew instantly I wanted to make some scrapbook pages for my daughter and hoped to *borrow* some images from Kadie {tee hee!} ...... and then next thing I know, the stamp set showed up in my mailbox!! Kadie!! Oh my :*) Her kindness and generosity truly know no bounds and I think we can all attest to her sweetness just being a wonderful part of who she is :*) Ok, I am getting all teary! Thank you so so very much, Kadie! It meant the world to me! So let me show you what MY Cute Troop made for her :) My little trooper, Victoria, is holding the card and yes, they have white noses from suntan lotion - rofl! We did a little sunshine state relay race ;)
















Now, all I did was bring some cardstock and stack of dsp to the table and let them go to town! My only interjection was that she likes the colors green & orange and has yellow hair (they DID ask, lol!!) They went bananas in learning that she was a Girl Scout, too :) I am so thrilled with what they came up with (that is one seriously neat dsp!) and showed them how to run the paper thru the CB, and voila! Some pretty darn tootin' coloring, too! (I know Victoria pays attention but the other girls - wow! Future DTs!) Hee hee! They signed it for her on the inside as a great big thank you and I promised that I would bring some images to them later on in the year to work on some cards and scrapbook pages :) So stay tuned! :) TFL - love ya bunches!

















I'm so proud of them - they "did a good deed daily" :)

Thank you, my wonderful friend - seriously, your generosity and your friendship mean the world to me! *muah!*
