I obviously love this layout as I have used it twice before (coffee card and good-bye card).  I needed some quick, but cute birthday cards.  I bought these dimensional candle stickers awhile ago with the intention of making some cards, so they were the perfect embellishment.  The sentiment is a Stampin'Up stamp.  I added a few Stampin' Up sequin stars and washi tape to the hand drawn border.  I think they are very festive.  What do you think?  Do you have a "go to" card layout?

So, this card was for a swap.  I was pressed for time so I decided to use some leftover stickers from my scrap basket.  I found a perfect piece of patterened paper and used a cocoa piece of card stock for the base.  The card is a flip flap card, very cute and easier than it looks.  I think my partner will like it.     ~Marie
 
 
 
            
        
          
        
          
        
 Reading has been challenging lately....between prom, graduation, new puppies, tryign to sell our house, and trying to prepare to move, well, there just isn't much free time.  I am currently on the search for my next book as I am still determined to finish the challenge.  I tried to read two books that I just could not get into, so....suggestions welcome ;)      ~Marie
