It’s time for the Spread Joy, Not Germs hop, and man, is this a good one! There are some amazing designers that have come together for this hop, and we’re all sharing cards to brighten someone’s day. I’ve got a link below to the next stop in the hop, but first, let me show you my card. My sister’s birthday is in a few weeks, and since we can’t get together to celebrate, I wanted to make her a special card.

Making the card might seem difficult, but it actually came together quickly with my EZ-Lights and a tunnel card die set from i-crafter. The cake is from The Rabbit Hole Designs, and the sentiment die is from Karen Burniston. From Heffy Doodle, I used a stitched circle die to cut the front of the tunnel card, a push here stamp, and a ray stencil for the background.
