Hello Everyone and Happy Thursday! Ummmm Thursday already again...can you believe that? Time's flying and only about 89 Days til Christmas...LOL. Are you counting already ??? Today I have some note cards to share. I made them using the Memory Box Debutante Frames all available at Dutch Paper Crafts. Just email Darlene with your order. With this die set you can make up a card really quickly. For 3 of my note cards I used the  98297 Debutante Frame   as base. On my first card I used in addition to the base the 98298 Vaudeville Frame. The little adorable monster is a SCACD stamp from the Susana Love's Stamps Monster collection called 'Monster Mash' .
