Today's the last day - hope you had a chance to see all my cards!
So here's my card.. It was really simple except for one thing....
All of the paper I had, and the letters are chipboard that I have had for AGES.. I've been cleaning my scrap room SLOWLY and putting everything on a shoe rack (will post photos later) and have founds some things I didn't know I had! I colored the letters with copics, except the S - first I did it yellow, didn't like it, then tried to use a white gel pen (didn't work) and then used the perfect pearls (didn't work) and then I found some white acrylic paint in my stash - that worked... I used some of my twine (finally) and some gems that I had bought for this hop a while ago... and also the cool gold buttons - I love them - bought them for Christmas & had leftovers! So this card used a lot of stuff I had hanging around - and if the white hadn't been such a problem, it would've been a 10 minute or less card!
A row of star stickers on the inside... :)

I think it is great that you used your stash to make this card and even greater that you applied the ole.."If at first you don't succeed, try, try again philosophy!" The row of stars on the inside is just enough to make it interesting and yet not take away from any sentiment you put there.
