My co-blogger is alive and well.  She just continues to be the busiest woman I know.  One of her many jobs is to create the Card Kit of the month for the Scrapendipity store.  We have decided to post the projects here on the blog, as her spare time to cardmake just for the joy of it is pretty limited these days.  At least this way, we get to see what she is up to.  This card kit is available at Scrapendipity, but they always sell out, and many people just have a standing order to get the kit every month.

This month is especially cute, as it has many of the latest trends showcased.  Underwater scenes, shaker cards, beaches and foxes are all trendy, so why not put them all in one card?
