Happy Birthday Mum

By | March 21, 2013

Hi there

Yesterday was my Mum’s 76th birthday.  We celebrated the special occasion with a family BBQ at our place.  It was a lovely evening and we were able to sit outside and enjoy the warm weather.

Here is the card I made for her:

I think Pool Party is one of my favourite colours – it seems to go with everything.  Here I’ve teamed it up with Rose Red another of my favourite colours.  I already had the image stamped so thought I’d start with that as my base.  It was stamped a bit too close to the edge of the paper to use the Labels Framelits so I had to try a few until I found one that fit the image nicely.  I love how we now have matching Paper Piercing templates for the Framelits – it just adds something to the card.  I like to mat my sentiments so worked out a way to mat the Ticket Punch myself – one of the joins is hidden behind the ribbon.  Mum really liked her card and BBQ dinner.
Supplies:
Stamp – Bordering on Romance, Made for You
Card Stock – Rose Red, Pool Party, Pool Party Core’dinations, Watercolour Paper
Other – Windows Collection Framelits, Ticket Punch, Rose Red Grosgrain Ribbon, Crayons, Aqua Painters, Festive Paper Piercing Pack, Vine Street Embossing Folder, Stampin Sanding System
Can you believe it’s Friday tomorrow – yeah another weekend is almost here.  Don’t forget tomorrow is the last day to order and get FREE Sale-A-Bration products.
