What's Brewin'? Chevron Card!

I took today off from work to play catch up in my craft room! I really felt like I needed a day alone to catch up on Design team projects, comments, and emails! It has been too distracting with the kids lately and I will be traveling soon. So while they were at school I spent 5 hours crafting! And I loved every single minute of it!!

So between my DT projects I snuck in a few to enter into current challenges.
