This Gingham Happy Birthday Card was made as part of a Mystery Stamping at our Blended Stampers Meeting last night. I had forgotten to cut out my pieces ahead of time so I just grabbed a pile of paper scraps and used those. So I just grabbed a stamp set that had both words and images. I guess I didn’t read the cutting directions correctly. My card turned out nothing like hers, but I like it anyway.
