Last Birthday Card of March

Today’s card is a CASE from Amy Koenders @ Stamp with Amy K. One last birthday card for this March! I can’t believe I actually made 30 different birthday cards throughout this month. Whew! I am a bit tired of card making at the moment, but don’t worry, I’ll get back into card making very soon. For this card, I loved the example card so much that I just made my own. It’s so bright and shiny in real life. Love it!

Glitter Unicorn

Today’s card is all about the sparkle! I found a chunk of this fun unicorn patterned paper just hanging out and had to create a fun and sparkly card to match it! I combined two retired framelit sets to create my scene. From there, I added a sentiment and some fun shiny pink sequins I picked up from the Target Dollar Spot some years back.
