Who is ready to celebrate Cinco De Mayo???

This "Let's Celebrate" card is one that I made on the cruise back in February and one which I thought was perfect for today!!

As you can see this is a fun fold card and one I will be featuring later this month in a special "fun fold" class.

As the belly band comes off this unique fold opens from both sides to reveal another stamped image and a place for your message.  I did use the retired Layering Circles Dies for the large black circle.  That is probably one set of dies that I will keep forever!!

I managed to get almost everything done yesterday that I wanted to.  I just have a couple of things to finish up before heading to Pella to meet Hanna, Jake, and the kids and spend two days at the Tulip Festival.  It has been a while since I have been to the Tulip Festival.  We are spending the night after watching the Lighted Parade tonight and then going back tomorrow.  I asked Hanna if the kids knew what we were doing this weekend and she said they only knew it involved Gigi and swimming.  What could be better!!

Every day is a gift . . . make the most of the gift you have been given today!! 

Happy Stamping!!
