Way to go, Lisa!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks, Dhes. This one was weird for me b/c I was trying to do another challenge in another group (that I still need to finish) and it wasn't coming together. (Didn't get the expected books from the library). Then I realized, I could add S.P.R.I.N.G. to this one.
Good job! I try to make this as simple as possible for you ladies, and since YOU get to create them... LOL Doesn't get much easier than that!
