BBQ Thank You Card

First of all... a huge thank you for all the kind comments about my party pics. I love planning them and would really love to figure a way to make money doing parties...but I really have no idea how to go about it...Feel free to offer any suggestions in the matter...my mother-in-law wants me to start a business too, but I can't get my head around it all.

Anyway, my husband just took our oldest two kids (out of 3) camping and I am staying home to organize and de-clutter in an attempt to get ready for the upcoming school year. Just thought I would pop in and post a quick card I made last Friday for some friends who invited us over for a BBQ. I used a really old-school Stampin' Up! stamp set and my new D'vine Swirl embossing folder from Cuttlebug (which I use in my Sizzix Big Kick). I love it...so swirly and cute. Well...I'm off to do damage control in the playroom...wish me luck. If I don't post for a few days, you may want to call for help!

Manly-Man Thank you card

This is a card I made for Dan during the garage re-model at our house in Troutdale. The front library pocket has a tag in it with a message I wrote. In the inside, I "embellished" the word thanks with sawdust from the garage. (hard to see in the photo.)

All paper, stamps and ink are Stampin' Up!

Baby Thank You Card

This is a thank you card that I made for everyone who gave me baby gifts after baby #3 was born. By the time you have 3 kids, people just kind of assume you have all you need. Although we did have most everything, all the clothes for H were the wrong season, so I was gratful to have some new clothes for him...sweaters in August just didn't cut it!!!
