You Made My Day!

Hello! Now that it has been about a week since my birthday thank you notes were sent, I think I can show you the card I made for them. I had two sentiments I wanted to use on my card and because I wanted to leave the inside blank for writing thank yous, I knew I would need to put both sentiments on the front of the card. That made the card somewhat of a challenge, until a friend had the idea of me putting one of the sentiments into the center of a flower. Then with the help of another friend, the card just came together! Thank God for wonderful friends! The other issue with my creation was that I knew I wanted to use scrapbook paper on it but I needed to get as many cards out of one sheet as possible. So, the striped piece at the bottom of the card was just perfect! Actually, I did have to do a few with a flower panel, but my favorite is definitely the striped panel! Here is my card... enjoy!
