Gail's (mamaxsix) wonderful HYCCT1418 challenge is to illustrate the idea of staying connected.
When I read Gail's challenge I knew just which image I wanted to use. This was the first time I have had the chance to ink up this cutie. To be honest it actually means a bit more to me now, then when I bought it. We only recently became smart phone users and oh my, how fun it is to stay connected to friends and family. I have had so much fun staying connected with my sister through FaceTime and we have even played a few games together! Janeen and I have stamped together several times via FaceTime, it's the next best thing to being in the same room.
I used MFT's weekly sketch to help me out with my design. I thought it was cool that there is a diagonal strip in the sketch as it "connects" the edges of the card.

I see that you and Bridget took the modern way to stay connected. Love the way you combined a modern image with more traditional floral elements. Great layout.

This is a great image, and it sounds like fun. I'm like many others have said before me. I have an old fashioned phone only. It's only to make and receive calls.
