I needed to make a quick birthday card and I thought this was it until I tried to run my die cuts through the Xyron and it ate them. FOUR die cuts late (I am a slow learner) I decided to use a different method to glue these down. I have run this same die cut through the Xyron before with no problem. I even tried two different sizes of the Xyron...Any way my quick card turned out not so quick :-)

Bowdabra? I'm off to research that!! Your card is simply gorgeous, Peggy....love the teeny tiny tag! I've had varying degrees of luck with fiddly die cuts and my Xyron too.....you have my sympathy!!

...sure it�s got a catchy beat, but can you stamp to it?

It really doesn't matter if you are a quick learner or not....but you sure are a good card maker!! I am not a big fan of yellow (especially the bright variety) but I think I am being converted! This is just too fabulous for words and I am lovin' your bow!

This is beautiful, Peggy! I love the sunny yellow color and your die cuts look wonderful. And what a beautiful bow all tied up w/ a little rose on top!

Gorgeous! Love the ribbon embellishments and bright color. Very happy card, even if your "quickie" turned into an event! Lol.
