Today's post is dedicated to my sister, Tina Rappe!!
She is my best friend and I love spending time with her.
Today is her BIRTHDAY and I get to spend the whole day with her and 500 or so of our closest stamping friends (haha). We are in Madison, Wisconsin at Stampin' Up!'s ON STAGE event. Tina is even doing a short presentation today — woohoo. I'll share some posts of her big day tomorrow.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LITTLE SIS!!!
I LOVE YOU!!!
