HAPPY BIRTHDAY -- CASED FROM SUSAN GILLESPIE

     Here in Atlanta we got 1-3" of snow on Tuesday (1/28). For us, that's a big deal. Two days later we are still working on the thaw. Mostly we have to wait for Mother Nature to warm things up because we don't have the snow removal equipment that our friends in the Northern states use on a regular basis.
     As a result, I have had a couple of extra days off this week, so I have been in my craft room making cards.  This is a birthday card that we made in our Stampin' Up Divas class with Susan Gillespie last year. Instructions for the card can be found on her blog here. Susan is my SU demonstrator and she has many beautiful cards that she has us create each month. I also have a link to her blog on my page.
The little bags are a lot of fun to make. The original card looks like this:

 

 

I tried some different color combinations:

Susan shares a video on how to make the little bags. I had a great time making the first card in class and making a dozen more on my snow day! I hope you like them too!
And just look...two posts in January 2014! I wonder if I can make it three? I have two days left! :)
