It’s Monday and it’s time for a masculine card. I paired the retiring Itty Bitty Birthdays Stamp Set with the retiring True Love Designer Series Paper. Surprise, surprise! Did you know there are bold patterns in this DSP? They are perfect for the quick and easy masculine card. I used the sentiment from the Itty Bitty Stamp Set – so true for the recipient of this card. He was awesome… Read More »
Fun fact: “There’s only about 10 or 12 yellow cardinals in the eastern U.S. and eastern Canada in any given year compared to 50 million or more red cardinals. Though yellow cardinals have been spotted in several states, including Alabama, Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania, the probability of you spotting one is 1 in a million! I wanted to use the Toile Christmas Stamp Set one more time before it retired but… Read More »

Today is my son, Louie’s, birthday. He would have been 55 years old – he died in 1995. After we moved to Arkansas, he enjoyed his frequent visits here and said he would come and live here to be near me. When Stampin’ Up! came up with the image of the little farm boy in the Heartland Stamp Set, I knew I would buy this set and always keep it.… Read More »
Today’s card features a card for my grandson David’s birthday. He is turning 21 years old! It’s not an SU image but I did use SU products on it. For my close relatives I always try and use an image that means something to them. If SU doesn’t carry something I can use, I find it elsewhere. In this case, David’s first car was Navy Blue Mustang. He totaled it… Read More »
Today’s card is for my grandson, Troy. He is not a sailor but Ventura is right at the ocean in California so I thought the sailor theme would be appropriate. When they are young (over 18 but under 30), you just don’t know what they really like! I used the Come Sail Away Designer Series Paper for the banner and background panel. The banner was generated using the retired Thank… Read More »
Another shabby chic birthday card for you. For this card, I’m way ahead since this person’s birthday isn’t until April. 🙂 The greeting is from the retired Happy Birthday Thinlits Dies. I used the Gold Foil Sheets to make the greeting pop! The flowers are non-SU and I’ve had them in my stash for several years. I added the retired Gold Sequin Trim for a little bling. Thank you for… Read More »
Need to make lots of birthday cards this month – two female and three males! Today’s card is for my nephew who is an avid Cowboys’ fan! The cowboy print and greeting was computer generated but I did use the Stitched Rectangle Dies to die cut the greeting. The stars are from the retired Star Framelits. I used Stampin’ Dimensionals on the stars and greetings to give the card a… Read More »
