We must have been at the same train station this morning, Angela. This is really cute, and your DP is perfect!!! I like your "happy birthday"s in the puffs of smoke.

This is just wonderful. I have never tried to make a card with my cricut................is it hard? Your card makes it look so easy. Love the bg paper you used too!
