April 17th is “Blah Blah Blah” Day. Now, with “blah blah blah” day reminds me of my grandfather would say would Gram would get on the phone all he could hear her say is “blah blah blah”.
Recipe:

Make the Cut to cut the 7-inch circle for my rocker card
Make the Cut to cut the doily which was 6-inch
