A...Whachamacallit...Card

Enjoy,

  1. I was wanting to make this exact same card the other day for a baby shower and I scoured the internet trying to remember where I had seen these done. Alas, I could not and so I ended up changing the card a little. But NOW...well, I wish I had ventured to your neck of the blogosphere, then I would have seen this great template! Your card is beautiful, by the way.

  2. I found your blog while searching for ideas for my Stamp-a-Stack class. I loved this card and was so gratiful that you had the directions and template. I cased it for my class. Take a look at what I made on my blog -- you truly inspired me. Thanks. mamadogmemories.blogspot.com
