A Grateful Heart = True Happiness

How to be happy??  The words on this card couldn't say it any better!  We made this card at Dawn Olchefske's DOstamping Card Class.  Besides a great message, it displays a cool technique - double background stamping!

This is so cool - I had never thought of using TWO background stamps like this - but I love it!  Take a look at Dawn's 10-Minute Tuesday Video to learn how to Double Background stamp.

Add a little ribbon and some pearls - and you have one of my new favorite designs!
