Happy Birthday, Ruby

I'm glad it's Friday!  Friday means I can stay up and make cards for all the challenges that I have missed during the week!!!  Tomorrow is a birthday party for one of my daycare children!  I'm excited!  So I came home from work tonight and made this card!  Actually, I love this card.  I colored Tommy the Turtle, Sweet n Sassy digi, with SU water color crayons.  I used SU Whisper White card stock for the base.  I used SU Concord Crush as a contrast.  I cut out a small piece of Silver Shimmer paper from SU (I LOVE this stuff....the picture doesn't do it justice.)  I cut a smaller piece of Whisper White and stamped it with SU"Happy Birthday" from Swirls and Curls Verses.  I also cut a smaller piece of the Concord Crush and used the opposite side of the patterned paper.  I wrapped The Twinery Lilac twine, from Sweet n Sassy, around the glimmer paper and made a small little bow.  I added some design by piercing the paper with my new paper piercer from SU.  I also added some purple eyelets to the sentiment card!  I am entering this card in Tuesday Throwdown challenge, #61,  that can be found here.  I am also entering this card in the Sweet n Sassy Crazy 4 Cocoa challenge, C4C10, which can be found here.  I am also entering it in Stampin Sisters in Christ Challenge #101 because I had to have this birthday wording and this is probably the first time I have used it.  You can find the challenge here.  Thanks for looking!

Wedding Invitations and RSVPs




I made 120 invitations and RSVPs for a wedding.  I am pleased that the Bride said that they turned out exactly as she imagined them!  I used Whisper White and Melon Mambo card stock from Stampin' Up.  The ribbon is from Michael's arts and crafts.  I used the vellum form SU as well.  I printed the info from the computer.  The rhinestones are also SU.  The border punch is a punch from Martha Stewart.  I used the mini heart punch from SU to punch out the hearts and add them to the invitations.

Sister's Day card

For the last couple of years, my sister and I have been celebrating "Sister's Day"!  This year both of us let it slip by!  Our relationship has grown and we are spending more time together and getting along, whereas we never did growing up.  I guess that I have grown up quite a bit lately.  I am learning sometimes, you have to let things go no matter how bad you want it, it may not meant to be for you.  Life is way too short to sit on the sidelines and waste it away!  I CHERISH my sister and that is why I chose to use the sentiment from Sweet n Sassy "I just can't bear to be without you".  I used Creative Memories paper flowers and SU buttons.  The card is Melon Mambo SU card stock and then whisper white SU card stock and black Recollections card stock.  The patterned paper was bought at Michael's and I cut out the ovals with Spellbinders and used patterned paper form SU.  I am entering this card in the Sweet n Sassy Sweet Stop Sketch Challenge here.

Friendship

I used Rhubarb heart to add to this "Friendship" card.  I used Echo Park paper to add "bright" color to this card!  The card stock is Recollections.  I used SU water color crayons to color the digi.  I am entering this card in Sweet n Sassy digi challenge found here
