Stampers Dozen March 2023 Blog Hop

Happy Birthday Theme!

Good evening and welcome to a March Stampers Dozen Blog Hop. I used some pretty products to create a card for our birthday theme this month. Check it out:

I created a little dessert window shopping experience using the Share A Milkshake Bundle and even added a triple valance at the top of the window on the inside using the Basic Borders Dies and Country Gingham Designer Paper.

I love all of the dies that are included in the set, espeically the diecut grid background that you see behind those luscious desserts:
