Online crafty friend and wonderful cardmaker Shirley Hotop (Glittered Paws Blog) sent me a little surprise not long ago. It was a card kit for a colorful, glittery, and fun birthday card. Everything was in the kit (including some dot adhesive) to make the card base and front. All I had to add was a stamped panel for the inside.
Look at this fabulous card!
THANK YOU SO MUCH, SHIRLEY!!!
Shirley had done all the die-cutting, so it really was just a matter of adhering the pieces to the front of the card.
She also including the strip sentiment. I did cut a few more strips the same size out of black cardstock and stacked them behind the sentiment to give it some dimension.
On the inside I stamped a sentiment. Shirley had included a glittery red outline of a balloon, so I glued the outline to a piece of red cardstock and cut it out. Then I glued this to the inside of the card and drew a string with a black pen.
This was such a fun and unexpected surprise. Thank you again, Shirley! You made my day!
To all whose blogs I follow and comment on regularly: I may not be commenting much during the next 10 days. I will be on an adventure, which I'll eventually share with you here on Paper Panacea.
Thanks tso much for stopping by, and rmember to laugh--a little or a lot--every day.
