I am so excited to be participating in the blog hop for the first time in a LONG time.  My release products just came in yesterday, but I already had this in my head.  So, I hope you enjoy.

Then you open it up:

I created a little pop up for a gift card.  I made it and cut it out on my Silhouette.

  9. I really don't comment enough on your blog, but I wanted to say that I love looking at your cards! Scrapbooking/paper crafting is one of those things I always wanted to do and just never did.
