Happy card

Hello Stampers! It is hot here in Dixieland today! I mean HOT already!!!! I'm not ready for summer. Well, what do you think of this card and why did I call this post a Happy card? The base is made from basic black cardstock,the second layer is 4x5.25 DSP from the Newsprint pack(love this paper). I used the bird punch, 1.25 wide black striped grosgrain with a very vanilla brad. I used the modern label punch and window punch for the sentiment. However, the actually stamp is retired. The reason I called this a Happy card is that I made it for my step dad. We call him Happy! He is very involved with the community chorus in our small city and often needs thank you notes for various reasons. This card was perfect for him and one of the reasons I love stamping cards. You have the ability to make them perfect for the giver or the receiver or both! If you would like to learn to make cards for your friends and family shoot me an email and I'll be glad to help you get started. Well, I wish for you a happy day, tell someone you love them, tell someone you care!
