Before we set off on our vacation to our home in Arizona, I needed an anniversary card for my best friend and hubby, Mark. We celebrated our 6 year wedding anniversary! He is definitely my BEST FRIEND and I am the luckiest woman in the world.
The owl punch from Stampin' Up! is a MUST!! Too many cute options to play with :)
Have a great day;

Loved my husband’s response when he saw this card and
realized it was for him from me! He loved it and that says a lot! I have wanted
to use the Level 1 Hostess Set in the Summer Mini for a bit and was glad I
created this cute card for him. It’s not too late to get a set of your own! Any
$150 order or more, placed before August 31st and this set can be
yours if you choose.
Make circles of any size with the Circle Scissors Plus …
layer with the new 2 ½” Circle Punch available in the Holiday Mini starting
September 1st! Must have stamping tools J

This card, made by Lisa Young – which can be found here on
her blog – caught my eye immediately! I ran to my stamp area and re-created two
identical versions with the supplies I had on hand (always helps to have ALMOST
everything Stampin’ Up has to offer!).
After I finished the cards, I thought, what other combinations could I create with the same layout and stamp set? I pulled out my To The Nines Designer Series Paper and went from there.
I love how it turned
out – kind of a ‘western’ birthday type of feel and definitely masculine (and
those types of cards are hard to make for me!). I emailed Lisa for permission
to post the card with FULL credit for the original design and idea to her and
she kindly allowed me to do so! That’s the beauty of the stamping community –
it is always flattering when you see one of your cards – CASED – but ALWAYS
appreciated (and proper) to give credit to the creator of the card. Thank you
Lisa for the inspiration and great card!

My Dad recently turned 80 and I wanted to do something light and fun. What better way to do that than to use a “young at heart” stamp set! My Dad absolutely loves frosting so I thought the cupcake was great and the Birthday Bliss verse on the inside of the card was perfect for him.
This was the first time that I’ve used my Big Bold Cupcakes and I think
it makes a great focal point on the card.
I just had to run the cupcake “paper” through the crimper to make it
more realistic!

What is it about guy cards that
makes us cringe when we have to design one?! For me its simple-no glitter! Well, I have several birthdays coming up for guys in our
family so I needed to put the glitter and other girlie embellishments away and
focus on a more masculine theme. I
think this card fits the bill!
I truly hope that the Hugs die
cut note cards make it into the new catalog. I could use them on so many cards!
