Finding My Mojo Again - Lady Bug Birthday Set

I needed a card and a gift this weekend for a little girl and had very little time to prepare. I've also neglected my stamping lately (as you can tell from the sporadic blog posts) and wasn't feeling very inspired. Thanks to a Mojo Monday Sketch and some online inspiration, I came up with this quick set and added an envelope with some money to the top note box. I cased a variety of sources for this project. The Treat Cup Card idea came from something I had seen from one of my upline's projects using a gummy worm and I had these Laura Secord Chocolates that I knew would be perfect for this card. The top note box came from a combination of several I had seen posted online. Unfortunately, we were running late so I barely had time to snap a couple of pictures, but they turned out okay and the birthday girl LOVED them!
