Cards

I just got home from 5 days in Utah. It so much fun to get to see Amy. We did a lot of shopping and lunch to celebrate her birhtday. I was so inspired and motivated to come home and get back into crafting. She totally gets how happy creating makes me and I am glad we got to go to the Wood Connection and an awesome Vinyl store with cheap vinyl in any color you could ever want. One of the days we went to Michaels and I bought this cute “Thinking of you in Prayer” stamp. Unfortunately I had a reason to put it to use already, but I was glad I grabbed it. I hope it made my friend who recieved it know how special she is to me and that I am praying hard for her and her family.

Next I wanted to make some boy birthday cards. So this is what I came up with. I love that I was able to use up some of my scraps on them. I bought the make a wish stamp in Utah as well. I didn’t notice until after I stamped it that the rubber part was adhered to the block croocked. I was so bugged, but I was able to fix it.

A couple of years ago I found these little cards on cleareance. I didn’t LOVE them, but they were only .40 for a pack of 6, including cute little envelopes. I thought they would be fun to alter and make cutesy. I have looked at them several times in my stash, but decided it was time to dress them up.

I like that they don’t really have a theme, and can be used for any occasion that could come up.
