    This quick and easy card comes together quickly with the right tools.  The scalloped circles look great - but you could substitute a cut square image as well if you don't own a big shot.

    Ingredients

    • layering circles by Stampin Up!
    • Quirky critters stamp set by Stampin Up!
    • pool party cardstock
    • whisper white cardstock
    • lemon lime twist designer series paper (DSP)
    • blender pen
    • pool party ink
    • lemon lime twist ink

    Instructions

    1. Cut pool party cardstock in half
    2. Cut DSP into a strip 2" wide X5 ½ long

    Notes

    testing where this goes in recipe

    I like to call "just because" cards "Cheer you Up" cards.  It's true you don't need a reason for a card...but often a friend needs some cheering up and would enjoy knowing you care.  This Quirky Critters stamp set would be great to send a quick and easy card.

    What kind of bird is it?  I think it might be a kiwi from New Zealand but perhaps you recognize the bird better than I do?  Leave a comment letting me know what type of bird you think it is.
