Happy

Hope you are happy.

I'm happy. Today's a great day. Why? Just because...

Today I want to feel happy. I decide to be happy and make everybody else notice I am happy. Being happy can be a decision... not just a feeling, not just a consequence...

Go find a reason to be happy... and if not... just be happy because you say so.

This card was made for a Happy Birthday. I combined some patterned paper with embossed cardstock, and added some banner flags cut with my Cricut Expression.

I hope you like the stars with buttons I used as embelishments. I'm sorry I don't have the original packet of these beautiful plastic stars. They came in different colors and are self adhesive... but I don't know the brand.

And here is another card I made with some scrap paper from different projects. Making a background with several strips of patterned paper can result very attractive.

This butterfly stamp is from Inkadinkado.

After these photos were taken, I stamped a sentiment in the front that says: Happy Mother's Day.

Hope you have a wonderful weekend.
