I went to a Stamp camp last weekend, held by Laura Z,  my direct from Stamin UP.  It was AWESOME!!!!!  Laura did an awesome job, not only did I leave camp with two Christmas gifts,  and10 cards but I also left with tons of inspiration.  (Now to find tons of time, LOL)

I made this card to thank her for her inspiration along with her time spend providing us with this awesome camp.
