Mary's Birthday

Can you believe it...TWO cards in TWO days!  WOW!!  This card is for our niece-in-law's (is that a name???) birthday.  I chose Cowgirl Dottie from Bugaboo Stamps, I've had her for several years, but Jodi just brought her over to the new store and she is on sale for $1.50 this week!  She is colored with copics, clear star gelly roll pen on her belt and blouse, and cut out with Lawn Fawn large stitched rectangle die.  The layout is for Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps August Sketch.  The pink handkerchief paper and cowgirl paper are by The Paper Studio, scalloped paper from Doodlebug Design kraft in color 6x6 pad, brown cs from my stash, and light pink cs from Craft Smith pinks and reds 12x12 pad.  Brown pearls from Recollections, walnut stain distress ink, sentiment from Stampin' Up! Bootiful Occasions, cut out with SB classic oval die, and matted with SB classic scalloped oval die.

Karleigh's Birthday

Today's card is for my niece's birthday next week...she will be 15!! I chose Peace Cat from Stamp On It (QKR Stampede's store).  I colored her with copics, glossy accents on her glasses, and silver heat embossed her necklace.  She is cut out with Stamps of Life stitched circle die and matted with SB lacy die.  The layout is for Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 Challenge #119.  Digital paper from  Kellymedinastudios on Etsy (PERFECT with this image) and cs by core'dinations minty fresh pack.  The sentiment is computer generated with free pawprint and peace sign clip art, cut out with SB  circle die and matted with SB scalloped die.

Scroll to the bottom of this post to see what I've been doing the last couple weeks.  My daughter started her 1st teaching job yesterday (HOORAY!) and I have been kept busy cutting things on my Cameo for her!

Laurie's Birthday

Today's card is for a good friend's birthday!  She likes her wine and I think she'll love this card!  This is BUGJJWINE from Bugaboo Stamps.  I colored her with copics, clear star jelly roll pen on her ribbon and sleeves, glossy accents on her glasses, wine glass, and wine bottle.  She is cut out and matted with SB small scalloped die.  Layout is for Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 Challenge #118.  Wine paper I bought on Etsy (shop is closed), Bo Bunny fruit punch dot, and cs from my stash.  Doodlebug Designs twine, The Paper Studio gems (they ARE all hot pink), Martha Stewart scalloped punch,  computer generated sentiment, and wine glass charm from Michael's or Hobby Lobby.
