Warm Wishes

I used a couple different PTI sets on this one: Four-of-a-Kind (2010 CHA set) and Tiny Tags. I don't have the Tiny Tags dies (next order!) so just fussy cut it. Didn't turn out too bad in a pinch. I think the paper is MME?

Words

Here's another layout share of my sweet little boy when he was just five and learning to write. I am so tickled that I kept his original notepaper that he used to practice writing his words. All too often these things get buried under other paper, lost, and forgotten. But not that day. Woohoo for me! lol

Mom

I completely CASE'd Betsy Veldman's card from 2010 CHA special stamp set (see card at her blog post here) to make this Mother's Day card for my MIL. It's just a tad different but only because I didn't have the same papers and, of course, Betsy's knack for knock out cards. :) Nevertheless, my MIL liked it.

10

I needed a card for my 10-year old nephew so pulled out my Grunge Me set and By The Numbers dies and made him this card. I loved how it turned out and with just a change of the colors it could be for a boy or girl of any age.



I even added some sparkle to the star! Can you see it? :)


Stamps: Grunge Me (PTI)
Dies: By The Numbers (PTI)

Another layout of my son from a few years ago and his OCD tendencies (I have no idea where he gets that *wink*).



Thanks for looking.

Just a number

I'm crazy about this clean, simple, and vintage-y concept for a card. Numbers, especially in black and white, are a trend I've been seeing a lot of lately. What I really wanted is a cool, old typeset style "No." and a reverse image of the word "birthday" (block image with word as a negative, so the block is inked but the paper color shows through in the negative of the word - does that make sense?) With those two stamps I could have done "birthday No. 8." I suppose I could have done that on the computer and printed it out but thinking about how to do it made my brain hurt. And I have too few brain cells left to be losing any more. ;)



This could be for a birthday or an anniversary or a "new home" - anything that might need a number. What do you think? Am I the only one that loves this super clean and simple card? :)

Supplies:
Stamps: PSX letter stamps
Paper: Rustic cream (PTI)
Other: By The Numbers die (PTI)
