Going to law school really cuts into my crafting time. Thanks goodness for my dear friend Kendra who definitely picks up the slack in preparing for our classes when my head is buried deep in books. We had scheduled two classes this weekend, a buffet class and a technique class. Kendra did the preparation for all of the cards except one -- the WOW card that we always do in our Technique Class. I saw this card (originally created by Dawn Griffith), and knew that I had to make it. What better time that in a class. Isn't it just so sweet...

What I love so much about this card is that it offers surprises. For instance, when you remove the belly band, there is a secret message underneath.

Excuse the crooked cutting. I am definitely not a perfectionist, but I would have liked to have cut it a bit straighter. At least the recipient will know this was a handmade card! Okay, but the best part of this card is the inside.

Isn't that absolutely adorable! Oh my gosh I enjoyed making this card so much. I have listed the measures and the ingredients I used below. To see a step-by-step video on how to make the card, you can't beat Dawn Griffith's description. She is amazing by the way. Anywho, here is the link to watch her Youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMSG5J0cZ2M&list=LLi1WNlyJkxv-OCDmxt9ymtw&index=17&t=0s
