How Sweet it is...

James Taylor's song "How Sweet It Is  (to be loved by you)" was the inspiration for this card. Play along this month at A Place to Start challenge blog with a card inspired by a song or anything goes (as always).

The popsicle diecuts are the August mini-delight from Altenew. It comes with a variety of toppings for the popsicles. I chose to go with chocolate dip with nuts and a brown glitter swirl. I filled the Emily Moore Designs shaker frame with clay sprinkles.

                               

 The inside of the card is finished with the leftover cut out and more lyrics from the song. Yes, I used my own handwriting, which can be tricky because it usually isn't perfect. I think the recipient will enjoy the personal touch though. I did practice on a piece of paper for spacing before writing on the actual card. 

This would make a great card to remind someone how well they love you or switch it up with some red and pink hearts or sequins for Valentine's Day.
