And the long weekend is over...

My birthday falls over the Victoria Day weekend. What a treat to celebrate my birthday with an extra day off! Well, today reality hits and I'm back to school... marking awaits me.

I thought I'd share these mini thank you cards. They are 2 3/4 X 4 1/4 in size. I used them as "thank yous" for the teachers who helped out with my spring concert. They are all made using the Blueberry Crisp DSP (can you tell I'm trying to get rid of my stash of DSP)???

Thanks for stopping by!

Trio of Baby Cards...

So my mom has always asked me for a stash of cards... birthday, thinking of you, sympathy and baby cards. I've always had a difficult time (for some odd reason) making baby cards. I think I was inspired by the super cute love sparkles paper and came up with a pink and yellow version of my card. I then went to my elegant soiree paper and made a blue verison. So now she's covered... boy, girl or unknown! : )

And here is what I came up with (thanks Ana for lending me the Slice of Life stamp set)...

CS: Pretty in Pink, Whisper White
DSP: from the Love Sparkles Scrappin' Kit
Ink: Regal Rose
Stamp Sets: A Word for you and Slice of Life
Embellishments: stickers from the Love Sparkles Scrappin' Kit

I LOVE PURPLE!!!

Purple is one of my favourite colours (along with teal, brown, green, and pink)! I'm obsessed with the SU colour Rich Razzleberry but one of my recent favourites the In Color Concord Crush. It's a super deep purple.

I created this card for a good friend who just got a new job. It combines two of my favourite colours - Pretty in Pink and Concord Crush as well as the Bliss stamp set : )

And drumroll please...... here it is!

Details please...

CS: Concord Crush, Pretty in Pink

DSP: Lap of Luxury

Ink: Concord Crush

Stamp Set: Bliss, A Word for You

Embellishments: Pearl from Pretties Kit

Tools: Stampin' Sponge, Modern Label Punch

Happy Monday to you!

Thanks!

The winter is still here but it is so nice to drive to work in daylight. I like not having to start the day in the dark. This is a simple thank you card I have re-created in a few different colours (that seems to be a trend for me). It was quite easy to make and would be easy to reproduce in multiples!

Here are the details...
CS: Real Red, Very Vanilla
Ink: Real Red
Ribbon: Real Red 5/8 Grosgrain
Stamp Set: A Word For You (I love this one! The font is lovely and it is has so many uses!) and Silhouette Sentiments (Level 1 Hostess Gift)
Tools: Modern Label Punch (Again... another favourite that I use all the time!)
