Today is World Card Making Day!! , Heart to heart card drive and a giveaway!!

Hello my crafty friends!! and Happy World Card Making Day! I hope you are having a very crafty day. I told my husband that today I will not do much because I just wanted to have fun creating, his answer was "Are you going to use the computer too? LOL, of course I said, hahaha. Of course, my day started making breakfast, cleaning the house and other things and it didn't start as I really wanted, but now I have free time and I am going to enjoy it.

I made 2 cards to celebrate!! I mixed them with several challenges because I love challenges :)

You're one in a million:
