Happy 9th Birthday, Verve!

I'm running a little late to the party, but wanted to wish Julee and all the Verve gang a very happy birthday! NINE years of wonderful images, some of the best sentiments ever... plus the dies, ribbons and sequins that make up the Verve store! Of course I had to create a birthday card for the Mojo Monday challenge.  It's the last week in August (yikes!), so that means it's tall and skinny week.  My card is 3 1/2" x 5 1/2" and I love the challenge of a narrower card base!

Nothing screams celebration more than a shaker card and some

glitter via Crystal Stickles!  The cupcake and sentiment are from Verve's Small Packages stamp set and I used their Pennant Trim die as well.  Other dies used...Stitched Fishtail Flags by MFT and All Framed Up Confetti Cuts by Reverse Confetti.  Papers are from the Sugar Shoppe 6x6 pad by Doodlebug Design, Inc.
