Cardastrophe
Ever have a card just throw a fit? This card must have been wanting to stay in 2018 or something because it was kicking and screaming like a toddler that didn't want to get dressed.
It didn't want to be a shaker card. No matter how hard I tried, every time the "2019" numbers went through the Big Shot they came out slightly off. (hid that boo boo with a sentiment)
The foam adhesive somehow made it down before the window sheet (no glass in the window ahhhh!) causing me to improvise and painstakingly draw and cut out the exact measurements of my wonky foam work to fit inside of the windows. Sounds crazy and it was crazy; but I had to save it. At last the window sheets were in place with some adhesive. Felt like I just barely won a boxing match after that.
Then those windows rejected the carefully poured out beautiful gleaming sequins and glitter by rambunctiously jumping out of their wonky made playpens and onto everything else. At this point it needed a time out. So I took a break and watched a movie.
Time to attach these naughty shaker windows and sequins to the card base. Again... It fought me. It didn't want to line up with the base correctly. Dang it! Had to trim the base and force a fit.
And just as if this toddler of a card had never acted up at all, the Angie girl grew up and blew her magical New Year dust making it all pretty.

She seemed so innocent now that I made a second card...well not a card, a tag. This time, she was well behaved and I even let her stay up until midnight!
