Last nights play was awesome .. I got so many photos , But here are a couple  from last night  play" April Morning" the 1st one is of Jessie  and  her best friend Codi …. 

the next few photos are just  few sceens of the play  that were pretty exciting like the boys going off to war 

and then the hospital sceen By the way thats Jeb  the main charater  that was running from God He gets shot  and  well  we think he dies.. BUT  theres a twist  at the end ..

We ordered a DVD  of the play last night I am excited to get it  in a few weeks and re watch it all over again ..

and here is a photo of just part of the cast 

  Jessie is on the far right  and  you cant see her  in this photo but look in the next  photo she is on the end  standing up  in the  town square sceen  

Thanks for  all your comments on  the overlay card on yesterdays post .. I  have made a couple of these in 2 different ways ..One way I just used the overlay as a slip over( cut your  window sheet  just as you would like your base card)  and you can tie  a ribbon  to hold the window sheet in place OR with the one I posted yesterday I just cut a 1/4 piece  and had it lay over the  main card You cant see it BUT there is one mini glue dot up in the corner ..

Dawns TIP of the day :

Hey did you know that if you apply a mini glue dot on  your stamped image  it is alot  harder to view  then just putting a mini glue down on  whisper white / or any solid  color CS with out any  images stamped .. try it ..  I seen this at one of  the SU! events I attended   awhile back ..

Have a Great day and see you all tommorrow

Until later … Happy Stampin!!
