Hello, sweet friends! I am trying very hard to get caught up on all the blog comments I have been so remiss in doing. And I've challenged myself to post more this month! So I thought it would fun to first post some birthday cards. These are two I made for birthdays for two of our granddaughters.
This one is using Mama Elephant Origami. Aren't those little animals adorable! I selected the fox for one of our granddaughters card who just turned nine. Included in her birthday gift was an origami book. I always try to match cards to something in their gifts so this set was perfect. The sentiment is from PTI. Several layers of the die cut add a little dimension as do the pinked squares from WPlus9.
My second card is for Elizabeth who just turned seven last week. Part of her gift included an outfit with two tops from Gymboree, my favorite place to shop for the little ones. Her favorite color is orange and one of the tees has a bright summer theme to go with her orange skort.
So of course her card had to have a sun!
This is a digital image from Sassy Cheryl Digital Stamps. I used the SSS curved die given to me by a sweet friend, Kara from KandRDesigns. The sentiment from MFT was embossed in gold.
Wishing everyone a great week!
Sharron
