Birthday Cards

I created two Birthday Cards with the same design (one for my Hubby and one for my Nephew). 

I used Crumb Cake CS for the base and ran some Bashful Blue CS through the Square Lattice Embossing Folder for the next layer.  A little Crumb Cake Seam Binding for the ribbon.  I used the Ovals Collection Framelits to cut another piece of Crumb Cake CS and mounted my Happy Birthday To You Stamp from the Cross My Heart Stamp Set which was also cut with one of the Ovals Collection Framelits and sponged with Crumb Cake Ink Pad.  My Hubby loved his card and I'm hoping my Nephew gets his in the mail today (he's a Groundhog Birthday Boy! LOL!!!).

Get Well Card for a Co-Worker

Here's a card I created for one of my co-workers that is off due to surgery.  I'll take it to our group meeting this month and everyone can sign it.  He'll certainly feel better knowing we miss him!

This is the first card I've created using the new Beveled Windowpanes.  They're so much fun and add a lot of class to the card, don't you think?  I used the Countryside Stamp Set for the Pickup and Loads of Love Stamp Set for the sentiment.  The Baja Breeze layer I ran through the Perfect Polka Dots Embossing Folder and then sponged with Soft Suede Ink.  I stamped the pickup on Water Color Paper and tore it around the edges and sponged it with Soft Suede Ink too.  I colored it with Water Color Pencils and used the Blender Pen.  The card base is Soft Suede and the ribbon I used is the new Crumb Cake Seam Binding.  I think Roy will like it and hope it cheers him up a bit during his recovery.
