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 features the Rooted in Nature Stamp Set. It was created in response to our team color challenge. It was a quick and easy card and perfect to use as a masculine card. Because those are so hard to make – right? The leaf images were stamped with Mossy Meadow Ink (2 sets, one set stamped off), Old Olive Ink and Granny Apple Green Ink. The smallest leaves were… 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 »
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 »
“Grow old along with me! The best is yet to be!” Truer words were never spoken. A couple of years ago, David gave me a garden sun clock with these words on then and it sits in the front garden. Made this card for David for his birthday which is on Friday. It’s not a SU stamp, but I love it and it is so appropriate for us. Everything else… Read More »
The Peaceful Place Stamp Set is full of tranquility and peace, which all of us need sometimes. I am using it for my brother’s birthday. I love the way this came out. The first time I stamped it, I colored it with the Stampin’ Up! Watercolor Pencils and didn’t like it. So I stamped it again and used the Stampin’ Blend Markers. What a huge difference! One of the best… Read More »
Today’s post features the retired Number of Years Stamp Set Bundle. I made this card for my wonderful son-in-law, Gary, who will be turning 60 next month. WOW, I can’t believe I have a 60 year old son-in-law! Can you believe I sold it when it first retired and then about a year later I wanted it? Thank goodness I was able to find a used set in good condition.… Read More »
Today’s post features the Rooted in Nature Stamp Set. I wanted a simple masculine card and I thought this was set was perfect for a “man” card. It’s a very simple and quick card and I made several cards. I have several masculine birthdays coming up next month and all I have to do is change the greeting to Happy Birthday. First I stamped the trees with Mossy Meadow Ink… Read More »
