Birthday wishes – Jan. 29, 2024

Birthday, calendar paper, Dull Glossy Paper

Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! We are looking forward to company coming today and have lots to do! We have also had an unexpected family emergency and will need to take some time. Please note, orders placed this week, will not ship until after Feb. 9th. Thank you for your patience!

Here is another birthday card with four stamps. I used scissors to cut out the square with birthday wishes and the potted aloe plant has a cutting die. The background calendar paper is recycled from an old wall calendar (originally from Target). I kept it to reuse because I love the gray.

Happy Wednesday!

I always keep the little strips of leftover paper. They are perfect for cards like this one.

Birthday, Dull Glossy Paper

Stamped a fun birthday card this morning! 

All three pieces of paper are sewn together and the white background paper is called white felt. The three squares are stamped on dull gloss paper, cut out with scissors and are glued on. The candles were colored with alcohol ink markers. Having trouble with technology now and trying to get it figured out! 😣

Birthday, Dull Glossy Paper

Just a quick post tonight. The paper behind the cake looks yellow in the photo but it is a Kraft paper sticker. I still need to find a phrase for the inside!

Birthday, Dull Glossy Paper

Today we have a birthday card with a turtle and two options for the inside insert. I haven’t glued the insert yet because I haven’t decided which to use. It is fun to have options!

Any turtle/tortoise fans out there? Kevin’s mom has a tortoise that roams the backyard in AZ (picture at the bottom!).

Hello!

Birthday, Cutting Dies w/ matching stamp, Frogs & Bugs

Good Afternoon! I hope all are well. I’m getting better – I think! It’s been a tough road but we are moving on. We have a friend who turned 89 a few days ago – yep my card is late. Always running behind but I had some fun making him a card. I sometimes forget how much I like to stamp when I haven’t done it in a while.

I decided not to color the bees because I didn’t want to ruin it and then have to start over 🙄 I did have to split the Happy Beelated Birthday stamp. Here is the link for that stamp: C329 Happy Beelated Birthday and the bee stamp: CC31 KB’s Bees – this is also used on the inside

I’ve been organizing my cupboards while recouping so I best get back to it and clean up the mess!

Good Evening!

I’ve added a birthday card to my stash! It was quick and easy. We have new stamps coming! I’m excited. It’s always exciting to get new stamps. On today’s card the inside saying is one of our most popular stamps. We redesigned it with more up to date fonts and it’s so awesome!

Fish Birthday

Birthday, Creatures, Dull Glossy Paper

Good Morning ! Yesterday was my first day back to my “real” job! Whew! I was tired! I had this fish card worked up and so I put it together and it’s another card for my stash. I really wanted an uneven number of fish on the front but couldn’t decide which to take off so I left them all on. Hope you had a good start to your week.

Birthday, Dull Glossy Paper

A little break from valentines with yesterday’s sympathy and today’s birthday card. I love these skinny candles and love blending the alcohol ink markers. I had one little issue with the dark blue that it just wasn’t blending well. I tried putting it on first and then the lighter color and then tried reverse. Not sure why it dried so fast but oh well! That sometimes happens. Things don’t always go as planned. Still love how these look though!

Stamps: B302 Wish Big, EE53 Skinny Candles, C302 Blow Out the Candles

The candles come in a set of reverse images so when stamped together, there is more variation. There is also a cutting die for them if we needed one to pop up. Link is here > https://shopec.com/shop/ols/products/cdee53-skinny-candles-cutting-die-cd5-skn-cnd-ctt

For the inside:

Or

G352 > https://shopec.com/shop/ols/products/g352-celebrate-bday-special-g35-clb-bdy-

I haven’t decided which one to use yet but am leaning more towards G350.

Hope everyone has a wonderful Thursday!
