80 candles

So I got this great stamp and die cut set a couple of weeks when Concord & 9th had their huge blowout sale. I decided today to make my aunt a birthday card. She turns 80 in a few months and this card has 80 candles. Now, it took me awhile to "revise" the diecut and candles as it comes 17 candles per sheet. So I cut off 1 candle of each piece of paper and used 5 rows of candles to get the 80 candles. I also had to revise the width of the original cardstock to more than 6 3/4" wide but it all worked out and I hope she likes it.
