Morning everyone!

Yesterday I finished up my Holiday shopping yay! I was quite surprised the stores were not too bad. Usually the weekend before christmas I avoid them like the plague! lol This year I just had too much going on to get every thing done ahead of time but I am done...now its just wrapping everything. lol

On the 6th day I gave a bag full of goodies! I gave them all a mono refill and then some of the incolor ribbon! I punched out the incolor card stock with the Round Tab punch and then wrapped some of the 1/2 polka-dot grosgrain ribbon around the punch outs. Enjoy ladies!

Birthday Card using True Friend

Brrr its cold here, winter has finally arrived! lol At least we are not getting all that snow that everyone else is getting! lol I'm sorry I've been missing in action with my blog. I finally finished up a major christmas project that I have been working on and starting Monday I will be able to show you what I have been doing! I made gifts for my adopted down line! I am hopping they will like everything!

Today's share is a Birthday card that I made for a few friends :) I used three stamp sets to create this card! I used True Friend item #110378, On Your Birthday item# 11664 and Teeny Tiny Wishes item # 115370.

My base is Not Quite Navy, then Always Artichoke. Then a piece of Kraft, which I stamped the image in the background from True Friend in Sahara Sand. I cut a strip of Not Quite Navy and DSP Bella Bleu. I took the Eyelet Border Punch and punched the edge of the Not Quite Navy piece. At the top of it, I used the Paper Piecer and Mat pack and punched holes the length of it. Once I layered the two pieces together I took Kraft Taffeta Ribbon and 1/4 Old Olive Grosgrain Ribbon and wrapped around the middle.

I cut a piece of Not Quite Navy, Always Artichoke and Very Vanilla. I stamped the flower from True Friend, the stem was inked in Always Artichoke and the flower in Not Quite Navy onto the Very Vanilla card stock. I then stamped the top of the flower again on a piece of Very Vanilla card stock and cut it out. I placed 5/16 Very Vanilla Brad in the center and popped it up on a dimensional. I took the Happy Birthday from Teeny Tiny Wishes, inked it in Not Quite Navy and stamped it on Very Vanilla card stock. I punched it out with my Small Oval Punch. I used the Large Oval Punch to punch out a piece in Always Artichoke. I layered the two together and pierced holes around the oval. This too had a dimensional placed on the back. To finish it off I added two Rich Regal Brads off to the side.

On the inside I cut a piece of Very Vanilla card stock. I stamped the greeting from On Your Birthday in Always Artichoke. At the bottom I added a strip of our DSP Bella Bleu. I used the Eyelet Border punch on it to dress it up more!
