Decades to celebrate

Seem to have had a spate of Birthday's with zeros on the end, so thought I would gather them together to show you here.

As a collective we thought an appropriate gift for Mark would be a zip wire experience in Snowdonia, so made this card to go along with the present.


Stamp Set: Sassy Salutations
Ink: Versa Ink and Pewter Embossing powder
Card stock: Soft Sky, Old Olive, Garden Green, Whisper white, Silver Glimmer and Vellum
Accessories: Island Indigo Baker Twine for the zip wire and Big Shot numbers

Here's one that I simply used a Pacific Point Hello You thinlit greeting with some embellishments that were hanging round at home, on a background of Pink Pirouette card stock, and some rhinestone embellishments. 


For friends, there is NEVER enough bunting . . . . 


As you can see I'm obsessed with the Hello You Thinlit, here in Brushed Silver, on a background of retired DSP. With Tempting Turquoise numbers and Banner Bunting with Birthday silver writing.


My other fail safe on the quick card front is the Celebrate Today Stamp set and co-coordinating Balloon Framelit Die. I prefer to use card stock with the die and then the Photopolymer stamp set makes positioning easy.

Stamp set: Celebrate Today
Ink: Night of Navy
Card stock: Cherry cobbler, Tempting Turquoise, retired DSP, Silver Glimmer
Accessories: Balloon Framelit die, Confetti Stars Border Punch

And last but not least . . . . 


A little sparkle for a 70th :-)

Stamp set: Everything Elanor for the background swirl, Butterfly Basics
Card stock: Tempting Turquoise, Blackberry Bliss, Silver glimmer
Accessories: Butterflies thinlits, Big shot numbers, Rhinestones

Keep on crafting, whichever decade you're in :-) GenGen xxxx
