A Geometrical Birthday!

A Geometrical Birthday! is the theme for today's post, I wanted to share another card swap that I received at a Stampin' Up! event.  Unfortunately, the name was not on the back of the swap – bummer!  But, isn't this a fun one?  It is made using the retiring stamp set – Geometrical – shown on page 141 of the 2014-2015 Idea Book & Catalog
