Wishing You Happiness.......



Good afternoon bloggers!  Hope all is well with you today.  I know it's late for me, but I have spent most of the day in my craft room and I have been productive for a change!  I'm sharing with you today a Pop Up Card to be used as a gift card holder.  This is a first for me and I just love the idea.  Joan over at joanscreations.blogspot.com hosts a challenge on her blog every two weeks and since I had not been able to play along in a great while, I decided to try this!  Grace at th-ink-ingofyou.blogspot.com  is the hostess for this challenge and she is a very talented lady!  I looked around a bit on her blog and she makes some gorgeous creations!  I'm so glad Joan selected her to be a part of this challenge.  I think I might just be back on track for these challenges! 

I created my card using Pinkpaislee paper and of course Spellbinders dies and a sentiment from Heartfelt Creations.  I hope you enjoy my creation and be sure to go over to Joans and see the other entries for this challenge.  You might want to play along.  Joan has some great gifts for the winner!

Well I'm off to do my afternoon chores!  Have a great evening and I'll be back soon with another card or two.
