Birthday Cards

Here are the two cards I made for this party --- I used one card from my stock too (three birthdays in one party -- it was kinda fun!)

Anyway here are the cards:
Mom BDay
This was made to match the vase - the Celebrate is from SU.
I clear embossed the flowers to give it more interest. Mom said she thought it was beautiful. (Yay!)
Jenni Bday
This is basic grey paper and chipboard elements --- I added a lot of bling and bright colors because that is what Jenni likes - I "over decorated" the card for her. She brought it back to the dorm with her because she wants to show it off (Another Yay!)
It was a fun party and then we went to a Halloween party after.
We had a busy day!

I think she was really surprised it was for her. I THINK she liked it - she can be hard to read - I KNOW my niece liked it since she said - well grandma if you don't like it I'll take it!
hehehe

I have had some scrapping time this weekend and while I am getting REALLY behind on my photos I am enjoying making cards! I used Creative imaginations patterned paper, Bazzill cardstock, spellbinders cutters (had them forever - thought I should actually USE them!) Autumn Leaves Stamp, Gold Embossing, Gold Stickles, SU Scallop Punch, Ribbon from my stash,Dew Drops Made by Sharon and Pop Dots The paper reminded me of foreign places and the stamp reminded me of all Bond movies!

OK - I missed the last TWO! of these so I am taking no chances on what looks like another busy work week. SO here is my entry for Miracle on 34th Street. I know this line is not in the movie (and that the little girls name is Susan in the movie) but this is what I always think of when I watch this movie. The reference "Yes Virginia There is a Santa Claus comes from a child writing to the Sun Newpaper and the editor answering with the spirit of the season. The card uses Bazzil Paper and Ribbon I forget the patterned paper brand. The Santa stamp is from Oriental Trading and the Letters are Studio G wooden letters. This is colored in with a combination of Tim Holtz inks (with the SU blender pen), Koh-i-nor pencils with mineral spirits and liquid applique. Brads, floss and a decorative eyelet round it out.
