Happy Birthday!!

Happy birthday to my wonderful sister-in-law.  We celebrated her birthday last night.  It was supposed to be celebrated on Saturday, unfortunately she got the flu :(  At least we got to celebrate last night with some yummy chinese food and great company. :)  Here is what i made for her.  I am really excited about how it turned out, and to be able to share it with you :)  This was actually cased from Crystal  and she has a tutorial you can follow as well to see how it was put together.

For this gift card holder i used whisper white and pumpkin pie cardstock and wild wasabi, pumpkin pie, summer sun, pink pirouette and basic brown for the ink.  I also used the greenhouse gala dsp.  For stamps i used Afterthoughts, Well Scripted and Eastern Blooms. 

 I used the modern label to punch out where the card fits in (although if i had it i would have used the word window punch) and the decorative label punch on the front. 

 I added some green satin ribbon to hold it all together.  I hope you enjoy making it as much as i did.  P.S.  The birthday girl was pretty impressed as well :)

Christmas Card Class Sneak Preview

I am hosting a Christmas Card class on Dec 8 and here is one of the 5 cards the ladies will be making. :)  It is similar to a swap i had posted on here a little while ago, but with a few changes. :)  I used Real Red, Old Olive and Chocolate Chip cardstock.  The same colors for ink plus Blush Blossom and Pretty in Pink.  I used Merry Moments Dsp and the stamps are All Holidays and Jolly Old Saint Nick.  I used the Snowflake punch and the Decorative Label punch and added a glimmer brad :)

Wow..what a busy time of year this is :)

I have been busy making christmas cards and even a few birthday cards.  My husband's birthday was in November and here is the card I created for him.  I really like the stamp set :)  For this card i used Close to Cocoa, Peach Parfait and Whisper White cardstock.  I used the same colors plus Poppy Parade and Elegant Eggplant for the ink.  The stamp set is called Sweet Scoops from last years summer mini.  I added some close to cocoa ribbon and some orange brads i had from michael's.  I really like how it turned out; plain, yet cute :)
