Happy 90th Birthday

 Hello & Happy Tuesday, Friends!

It's been a crazy last few days which I will share more about that tomorrow.

Today I am having my girls over for a Stamp Day w/ Friends get together. It's been a long time coming and i'm so anxious to see them! I am also very exhausted and could probably sleep the day away so there will be lots of coffee happening!

Today I am sharing a card that I made for Audrey way back at the end of May for one of her friends who was turning 90! She always likes her cards to be personalized and so I pulled out a long retired stamp set called Memorable Moments. I also paired it up with You Are Remarkable set from the Online Exclusives.

Card Details:

Stamps: Memorable Moments (retired), You Are Remarkable (Online Exclusives)

Ink: Basic Black Archival (retired), Versamark

Cardstock: Boho Blue (retired In Color), Basic Black, Basic White, Mixed Media DSP (Online Exclusives)

Accessories: Stylish Shapes Dies, Circle Layering Framelits (retired), Adorning Accents Edgelits (retired), Petal Pink Low Profile Dots (Online Exclusives), Petal Pink Scalloped Ribbon, Glue Dots, Dimensionals, Stampin Seal Adhesive

Always fun to pull out the retired stuff and mix it with new items!

Loved this card and so did Audrey!

Sorry to cut this short today but I need to get my day started and wait on the girls to get here!

Happy 90th Birthday

 Hello & Happy Wednesday, Everyone!

If your on the east coast I hope your staying warm & dry as we are in for another day of rain.

I feel like a broken record but we've had so much rain in the last month or so. The grass has been growing like crazy and Shawn tries to get out to mow as much as the weather allows. I know in about 2 months it will be the complete opposite....hot & dry! Sometimes ya just can win against Mother Nature.

Today I have yet another personalized birthday card for Audrey's friend, Janet, whom is turning 90. Let me tell you a sad story before I get to sharing the card. When Audrey called and ordered this card she went on to tell me that this lady's husband had just passed away in a farming accident about 2 weeks ago. I remembered reading the story online in a news article. My heart sank. How terrible. But because they are farming people she wanted something with veggies on. I went in search of some paper and found the perfect piece! This is what I made for her. 

Card Details:

Stamps: Memorable Moments (retired)

Ink: Blackberry Bliss

Cardstock: Blackberry Bliss, Very Vanilla, Farmer's Market DSP (retired)

Accessories: Lots of Labels Framelits (retired), Blackberry Bliss Ribbon (retired), Mossy Meadow Dots (retired , Glue Dots, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

Audrey was just SO happy with this card and called to say how much she appreciates all the work I put into her orders. She said that Janet will love this card! I do, too! I think it's the colors & print on the papers. I did have a dot of glue on my sentiment panel which the adhesive eraser took off after my pictures were taken. LOL I was rushing to get finished.

Since we are in for another rainy, dreary day I am planning the afternoon at my stamp table.

Audrey already asked for another pack of Zinnia cards! I'm happy to get them started! Atleast it will be sunny & bright in my stamp room once I pull that pack of paper out! LOL

Whatever you do on this rainy day, make it fun!

Happy 70th Birthday!

 Hello & Happy Tuesday!

Another rainy day here in PA! 

Yesterday turned out to be a nice one for a change.

Shawn got his doctor appointment in. We were there for quite a bit because he needed to get blood drawn and his ears flushed. Wearing ear plugs at work always clogs the wax up and he usually knows when they need cleaned. After that we did a quick supper at the restaurant and back home in time to get Miss Bailee out for a walk. It was a nice evening!

Today I have another one of Audrey's requests to share for a lady that was turning 70.

I pulled out lots of floral stuff when making these personalized cards and some long retired things!

Card Details:

Stamps: Memorable Moments (retired)

Ink: Calypso Coral, Garden Green

Cardstock: Calypso Coral, Garden Green, Basic White, Garden Walk DSP (retired)

Accessories: Perennial Postage Dies, Lots of Labels Framelits (retired), White Organdy Glittered Ribbon (retired), Calypso Coral Enamel Dots (retired), Glue Dots, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

My cards usually have a mix of old & new together and I was pleased with how it turned out.

Happy 99th Birthday

 Hello & Happy Sunday!

Today I am sharing another cute card made for Audrey's recent order.

She has a number of friends whom will be celebrating big birthdays this coming month. She has asked that I personalize all of them for her. This is the first one I made...

Card Details:

Stamps: Memorable Moments (retired), Petal Park (retired)

Cardstock: Night of Navy, Balmy Blue, Basic White, Regency Park DSP (retired)

I always did love this paper & stamp set! I just realized that the Petal Park Builder Punch carried over into the 2024-2025 Stampin Up Catalog! YAY! Too bad the stamp set did not.

Tropical Chic Anniversary Card

Hello & Happy Thursday!

Hope everyone made it thru the storms that came thru on the east coast last evening!

We have had SO much rain since Saturday. I'm not sure on totals but it was alot!

This morning, many roads in my area were once again under water and closed.

We woke up this morning to sunshine & blue skies!

We need it to help dry everything out!

So today I have a card to share that has a tropical feel to it...just like our weather!

This card was made for a card order for a couple that will be celebrating their 28th wedding anniversary in September. 

Take a look....

This was a fun card to put together! 

The Tropical Chic bundle can create many different cards for different occasions.

I could see this being used for a Christmas card as well!

The couple receiving this card is going on a cruise so I thought the tropical feel to it would be a great way to celebrate their anniversary!

Card Details:

Stamps: Tropical Chic, Memorable Moments (retired)

Ink: Shaded Spruce, Granny Apple Green, Blushing Bride

Cardstock: Granny Apple Green, Blushing Bride, Whisper White, Tropical Escape DSP
