Never Enough Birthday Cards . . .

Happy Monday All!

WOW what a crazy week I had last week between getting together with High School friends for an Alumni Reunion and my 1st Cousins/Full Family Reunion ... I made a lot of trips to Pennsylvania and did a LOT of talking 

(not a difficult task for me mind you!  lol)

Anyways, now I really need to get down to business with my card making because we all know how time can get away from us and I have the Fall Country Club Show on Sept. 21st.   My supply of Birthday cards has dwindled so I'm concentrating on those at the moment.  We never seem to have enough Birthday cards ... why is that??  LOL

Here's a few I made quickly the other day using a beautiful new paper pack I purchased through JoAnn.com by Dovecrafty called 'Bohemian' (thanks Diane Hover) ... it is gorgeous so of course I had to buy both the 6x6 and the 12x12 paper packs.  I think I'll be making a few tissue box covers from the 12x12 size for the show also.

Last week I shared a card  that I created for the Sisterhood of Crafters (seen here) ...

 ... as soon as one of my high school friends saw it she wanted to purchase it.  That gave me the idea that maybe it would be wise to do up a few more in this design and have them available for the show.  So I made 2 in pink and 1 in blue ... will probably make up a few more in the black & white also ...

 Using the Tattered Lace 'Roxie' fairy die, Martha Stewart '3 in 1' butterfly punch and Wild Rose Studio 'Birthday' #WRS020.

The ribbons I have used are from various packs purchased through the Really Reasonable Ribbons club.

Today I have time to play in my crafting cave so I think I will concentrate on sympathy cards.  Unfortunately, that is yet another category I can't seem to keep enough available on hand.

A few challenges to share in:

I hope you have a fabulous week ahead.

As always . . .
