5 Sweet Wishes

For this layout I used my Tool Taxi stylus to apply the tiny little rub-on flourishes.  The precise tip makes it much easier to apply the small designs anywhere on my page.  The Tool Taxi glue also came in handy to adhere the candle flames I punched using the April Showers Squeeze Punch.
