Ok finally on to my project!


My project today is for one of my good friends Angie! Her birthday is coming up and I wanted to make her a special card. I hope she likes her card as much as I do! I had  a lot of fun thinking of ideas for it! Of course some of the ideas got changed... as I broke my foot today and wasn't able to use the Cricut or the computer for the card. I had to finish my card from the couch! You know that whole needing to stay off my foot thing!!! :)   But I think it turned out great!

Happy Birthday Angie!!!



 I asked her if she would like one with chocolate (which I know she loves....) or maybe a Twilight card. This was just after I had bought some wonderful Twilight Digi's from the Pixie Dust Studios. Of course I told her if she picked Twilight then it would have to be something with Edward in it... :) Can you tell I am Team Edward! :) So... she said either would be fine..
So I decided to combine two of her favorites Chocolate and Twilight, it's her Birthday soon ..so she is entitled to have both :)
I wanted to try making a gatefold card this time as I have never made one before. I searched the Internet and found instructions here http://beate.blogs.splitcoaststampers.com/2007/06/10/gate-fold-card-tutorial/

I just needed to change the size a little bit to accommodate for the size of my digi stamp.
