Fall Birthday For A Friend

Well I've been busy with making use of my new craft room and just loving what I'm coming up with. With all that room it's truly an inspiring area for me to be working in. A friend needed a birthday card for her son and I don't make too many masculine cards so this was a great challenge for me.

I tried to make it simple but somewhat masculine. I thought I achieved it, but I was told it's a unisex type card...what do you think..?


Card Recipe:

Ink: SU! Momento, Versafine
Paper: GP white, SU River Rock
Embeliishments: Punch, Stickles, pop dots, rhinestones,
thin twine.

Have a nice weekend all

Spring into May Birthday's

Hi everyone,

I have to admit that I hated the fact that my b-day landed on Mothers Day this year but it actually turned out better than I ever expected :) So I'm thanking everyone who wished me well on my B-day/Mothers Day. Hopefully all the Mothers out there were appreciated :)

I'll be posting pics sometime over the weekend so make sure you stay tuned :)

I had fan making this only because I used my new spellbinders flower dies *big grin* I used my Perfect Pearls for the very first time too on this card on the leaves for some highlighted dimension.
Have a great day everyone!

Card Recipe:

Paper: 140lb watercolor paper, Colorbok CS paper pack, Bazzill CS
Stamps: SU Warmest Regards
Ink: Versafine Black, SU Chocolate Chip

My Moms Birthday Card

Good late morning, early afternoon, whatever it maybe where you are :) Well I've been surrounded by birthdays this month which has kept me busy and put a huge dent in my wallet. I went to a friends birthday dinner/dance thing last night which actually ended up being a celebration for 3 people. I didn't know the third person but it turned out nice. Mind you I wasn't to happy with the dinner...it came cold. So I pretty much had to hurry and eat before it got any colder. Oh well...My DD had her second birthday dinner with her friends at a restaurant in the same street. So we were doing the Birthday thing this weekend...however my DD has been doing it for last two weeks. My mom is next...she wants to go to Red Lobster which was put off due to her busy schedule. Actually I like Red lobster so I can't wait for that dinner to come around. :)

Now I wasn't able to make a card for my friends but I made this card for my mom...it is so much like her...the colors and the color of the flowers...it turned out beautifully I think. She loved it..at least I think she did...lol...she doesn't really show a lot of emotion. I have more to share but will have to do that a little later I have a ton of things to get done today and I was a late riser today...check things out in the evening I'll have some of my favorites posted.
