Kazan's Sketch 8

We have a new header!
Kazan & I
thought we would change things up with the seasons.
"Happy Fall"



First I would like to wish all our American friends a happy Labor Day today. This weekend is often times a bittersweet holiday for many because it signals the end of Summer. This summer went by all to quickly for me but I am looking forward to Fall and Winter and the special holidays we celebrate during those times too. For those of you that did do something special on this weekend I hope that you were with those you love and care about and that it was a safe one. Once again our Spectacular Design Team did a fabulous job with this weeks sketch

Ashild
There is an awesome Turorial on Ashild's blog on how to make this nifty accordian box
