Birthday Cards

Well, it sure has been a while since I've been able to spend some time in my craft room....what a wonderful feeling it is to get back to it.  I've returned with a vengeance. :-)  Last night I was able to get a set of 6 cards done (will post via separate entry) as well as a belated Birthday card for my brother.

I really like how the card turned out.  I sooooo love my Create a Critter cartridge.

The card is a standard A2.  I can't remember what size the bee and hive are cut at.  I used some chalk ink to soften the edges of the hive and blended it across the front of the hive as well to add a bit of dimension.  I also used Stickles on the bee wings and the heart at the top of the hive.

The sentiment is from My Pink Stamper's Family and Friends stamp set.

Last weekend was my Mother-in-Law's birthday.  I made a real quick card just in time for dinner.  For this card I used A Child's Year.

 

I kept this one pretty simple....but of course, I added a bit of bling with Stickles and the iRock.

Hope you have enjoyed these cards.  I'll be posting the card set tomorrow morning as it's already late here.

Have a great day.....
