I wanted to make a fun card--I was feeling very girly--so I created something soft and pretty... a card!


 This was a pretty simple card to make- and I used some of my new favorite products... Click on the picture for more information on the product!






And for a giveaway.... how about a $10 gift card to 2peas!!  Leave me a comment and I'll randomly pick a person for the gift card on the 8th!
