50th Birthday Card for Book Club Buddy


This card turned out so fun! As usual, I'm going nutty over the polkas again. I fell in love with this paper with the fuzzy flock of polkas (la-di-dot by doodlebug design, inc.) until I made the card, opened it up and realized that they WRITE ON THE BACK OF THEIR PAPER. UGH! It was a rookie mistake not checking it first. It did present me with the opportunity of using the black on the inside to cover the writing. I wish my pic showed the sparkle of the rhinestone swirls (Say it in Crystals - Prima Marketing). I love how the paper accepted the stamp, where it hit the polkas - it went opaque - SUPER COOL!

I also love this quote by Jane Austen ~ One can never have to large a party ~ who knew she was such a party animal?
