Make It Monday #227: Focal Clusters


Today's card is just a cute little one that I made for a friend who is going through a tough time.  I hope that this card will bring her a little joy and sunshine.  She deserves it.
This technique is called Focal Clusters and you can see how Lexi does it HERE.
Once you find some stamps that fit together, it is quite easy and turns out very nice.  I love what I got on this card.

Have a great day!
