Starbucks Birthday

Oh, that Betsy - she gets me every time.  I loved her video for this week's Make It Monday - and her card was jaw-dropping beautiful.  I would have liked to mimic the very card she highlighted for us, but I don't have the stamp set she used - or the skills.

Luckily, I needed a birthday card for my sister-in-law.  She's addicted to Starbucks coffee and I don't blame her.  If I had to get up and get to work at the early morning hour that she does, I'd be at Starbucks every day.  She orders a "Grande Non-fat Latte with Whip."  Non-fat WITH  whip.  Yes, she appreciates the contradiction too.  

Here's her card - early - I might add.  Score one for me!! (Our birthdays are 6 days apart and I already have my present from her, so technically, she wins the early race!)

Mat Stack 3 dies, Inside and Out: Birthday, Woodgrain IP, Starbucks wrapper!!

Can you guess what is tucked inside?  I'll give you a minute...

Thanks for visiting My Happy Place today!  Sorry I'm not more frequent with my posts.  Laundry, dishes, cleaning, teaching, cooking, Hawaii 5-0, sleeping...

What a thoughtful card. I'm sure it will be much appreciated. I like how you have used this week's MIM technique.

Your background stamping is beautiful, and genius use of the Starbucks wrapper!

How unique to use a Starbucks wrapper to create a card. I love the color combo. and it fits the MIM challenge perfectly.

Genius, the way you must have used a wrapper for this . Such a great idea, My oldest daughter who just had her sixth child all under the age of 9 , is a Starbucks lover too. I cant wait to make her a card like yours. Wonderful card! TFS
