Today, on Charlene Merrick's birthday, the CCEE Stampers are having a tribute to Charlene. As I am an alumni on the team and was was there with her when she was diagnosed with cancer, they have asked me to join them.
Charlene loved penguins and M&M's. I also remember she posted her favorite colors were purple, red, and blue. I'm thinking Charlene probably chased a snowflake or two in her life, too. I think she would like my card.
Charlene was such a fun and kind person. She was a Dirty Dozen member on SCS and made terrific cards and projects.
Very pretty. I did not know her, but I know her username and have admired some of her cards. This is a lovely, fun card, and I like your reasoning behind it. Very nice.

Oh you have touched my heart with your sweet tribute to Charlene! I didn't know her personally only from on here and at the tea parties where like you said she was always flinging M&Ms! I know she is smiling down at you!

I was so saddened to hear of Charlene's passing, Benz. I originally read about it on Facebook. I knew her slightly from the challenges. I think she would like your card too....it's lovely!

...sure it�s got a catchy beat, but can you stamp to it?
