Simple but cute! This one obviously didn't take long, but I think it's kinda cute. This one is for Karen's challenge (kgiron.blogspot.com) I noticed her card size was 6 1/2x3 1/4, so I thought I'd give it a try. I like it! I think, I'll use these measurements more often. I'm also using it for Cupcake Craft Challenge, this week is...BEACH theme.
