Hello and welcome. Today’s card is for our oldest granddaughter, the last year of her 30’s…. YIKES!!

Recently I made a card with this layout, and the recipient liked it so much I decided to make another one. Pp was found online, sentiment was printed in my Hallmark card program and gems are from my stash. For a more finished look I like edging the pp with a marker matching the cs. Hubby likes this one so I guess it’s ok.

Hello and welcome. Today’s card is for my niece. Image and sentiment “For your birthday, I wanted to give you something that was both funny and charming, but then I remembered… you already have me in your life. Happy Birthday.” were found online. Cs used is Stampin Up’s Cajon Craze. Picture frame and corner strips are 1/4″ strips cut from cs. This niece is following in my footsteps by also making sarcastic cards. I’m so proud of her. 😉

Hello and welcome. Background spiderweb is from no name ef which I used a blending brush with Basic Gray stamp pad to darken it. Sentiment is computer clip art that I fussy cut and popped up. Spiders are from an old Sizzix Sizzlit die that I’ve had forever. Spider heads and legs have black Wink of Stella for a little creepy sparkle, bodies have black glittered Fun Flock added. Spider eyes were added with a gold gel pen, and spiders are also popped up.

Hello and welcome. Today’s card is for our oldest granddaughter and hubby. Again, pp was found online. Pp was adhered to Very Vanilla cs leaving a 1 1/4″ space. Sentiment was printed in my Hallmark card program and die cut with a stitched rectangle die that I bought on Amazon. Small flowers are from Flourish Thinlits by Stampin up. I added Wink of Stella to the flowers for a little glimmer. Card base, flower and sentiment die cuts are Pumpkin Pie cs.

Hello and welcome. Today’s card is for one of our favorite servers. Her only “child” is her dog so I thought she might like the paw prints paper. Pp was found online. Sentiment was printed in my Hallmark card program, but it took several tries to get it placed right. I used a small circle punch to punch a couple little paws from the pp to place on each end of the sentiment. It’s a pretty simple card but I think she’ll like it.

Hello and welcome. This is the layout that popped into my head when I found this piece of pp in my stash. To add a little texture to the white 5 14 x 4 panel I diagonally scored it every 1/4″. Circle dies are Spellbinders Scalloped and Classic circles, sentiment was printed on the computer. I was happy with the finished card and hubby liked it too. This will go to one of my longtime friends.

Hello and welcome. Finally, I got around to making a diagonal split card. White panels were embossed with The Paper Studio’s snowflakes ef., pp was found online. The poinsettia embellishment is computer clip art fussy cut and popped up with Wink of Stella added for a little glimmer. Sentiment dies are Spellbinders and cut in both black and red. Before die cutting I added double back adhesive to the cs. I also added Wink of Stella to the sentiment. I’m very pleased how it turned out.

Hello and welcome. Today’s card is for our grandson-in-law. Background panel is embossed with Cuttlebug’s Happy Birthday ef, circle dies are Stitched Circles by Die-namics. Numbers are from an old Sizzix, Sizzlit alphabet set that I’ve had forever. Sentiment “We regret to inform you that your 30’s have now expired.” was found online. I have used that sentiment before for different decades.

Hello and welcome. Time again for dear old sister’s chuckle card. Image and sentiment “Hey, my good old friend. I was thinking of you just the other day… What’s your name again.” were found online. I added score lines to each side for a little interest and to make it look like I actually did something making it.
