Nifty Nonagenarian!

 My Uncle turned 90 at the beginning of September and is truly legendary for his age, so I wanted a celebratory, but not too over the top card (somehow the large numbers were still in Gold Glimmer).


Stamp Set: Elegantly Said
Ink: Momento Black
Card Stock: Gold Foil, Simply Elegant 12"x12" DSP, Whisper White, Gold Glimmer
Accessories: Triple Banner Punch, Large Number Dies, Gold 1cm Shimmer Ribbon

After all, it's not every day!

Welcome to the World!

 You know sometimes, a month passes in a flash, well for me, it's two months that passed in a flash and I'm unfashionably late getting cards into the post for the latest family additions - just hoping the thought DOES count despite the tardiness!!


As you can see my time constraint has lead me to use the same base design for these cards (for cousins).

Also, as I deconstruct my old craft room I'm rediscovering old stamp sets, banner punches and retired DSP that I only seem to be able to release, by actually making them into a card!

Keep on card making, 
even if you're as behind the deadline as I am ;-)

World Card Making Day!

 Today, on World Card Making Day I haven't managed to make a card, but luckily for me it coincides with my DH Birthday, and as he's in cooler climes I reflected that in the card I made, and as you can see, couldn't resist some glimmer numbers to reflect the Heinz number he's celebrating this year!


Stamp Set: Merry Snowflakes (and retired Happy Birthday)
Ink: Pacific Point, Bermuda Bay, Night of Navy, Balmy Blue
Card stock: Pacific Point, Balmy Blue, Retired Glimmer and foil
Accessories: Stitched Snowflakes Die set, (retired adhesive backed snowflakes), Large number dies

Keep on card making,
when you get a moment ;-)
