More Birthday

I got tired of uploading pictures on Saturday. Here are the remaining cards I made. Some of them are for family and friends, others were for the HFPE Birthday dinner.Stamp Sets: Warmest Regards & Lots of Thoughts
Colors: Pumpkin Pie, Chocolate Chip, Green Galore
Supplies: I used some ribbon I found from the $1 bin at Michael's. I used the 1 3/8 circle punch and the scallop punch to make the tag. I adhered the tag using a pop dot. Many people commented that it was there favorite.
Stamp Sets: Something to Celebrate & Wonderful Words
Colors: Apricot Appeal, Night of Navy, White
Supplies: I used some velum left over from our HFPE Christmas invitations and stamped the words celebrate over the colored presents. The presents are colored in Cameo Coral, Lavender Lace, Certainly Celery, and Bashful Blue. I used my Crop-a-dile to adhere the navy eyelets.

Birthday Cards

I set a goal this year to be better about sending out birthday cards to all my brothers and sister, parents, grandparents, nieces, and nephews. To help with this goal I made the following cards over the course of the last week.
Stamp Sets: Birthday Whimsy and All Year Cheer II
Colors: Tempting Teal, Pumpkin Pie, Green Galore
I used some ribbon I found in the $1 bin at Michael's, black ribbon for the bow, a small orange brad, and black thread.

Stamp Sets: So Many Scallops
Colors: Pumpkin Pie & Green Galore
I used some ribbon that I had save from some Halloween packaging , 3 small orange & pink brads, and leftover paper from by scraps.

Stamp Sets: Simple Sayings II & Friendship Blooms
Colors: Pink Passion, White, & Black
I used some ribbon I found in the $1 bin at Michael's and just cut out the flower to attach with a brad. Simple, but I love it!Stamp Sets: Simply Circles & Birthday Whimsy
Colors: Creamy Caramel & Bordering Blue
I like the simplicity of this masculine card. I just tied the brown ribbon in a knot and attached two knots with tan gingham. This is one of the cards I designed for the Relief Society Birthday dinner.
Stamp Sets: Celebrate U, Birthday Whimsy, Print Patterns
Colors: Bordering Blue, Night of Navy, Green, and White
I have lots of brothers so I needed some cards to send to them. There are no embellishments on this cards, just lots of layering.
