New Cards

Yep, I have been a stampin fool, off and on, but always madly trying to catch up with all the birthdays, anniversaries, swaps, and sadly, sympathy cards that have to be done! I have about 50 or so "guy" birthdays to do each year, and this IS a challenge, because I love the floral, and cutesy animals images so much! I don't know very many men who celebrate their "feminine side" along with their birthday! So one gentleman on my list received this card (whether he golfs or not!). ;-) For the stampers visiting - this is the "And Many Mower" stamp set from the 2009 SU Occasions Mini....

Two sympathy cards, both partially case'd (sorry, don't remember who, but someone on SUDSOL). Bloomin Beautiful on the left and Fifth Ave. Floral on the right. Simple and Elegant.

This "Boatloads of Love" card was designed for a "manly swap" challenge, and WOW, was that a challenge - I had to do 10 (yikes!) then did 2 more, one an actual birthday card for another lucky guy on my list, and one for my "sample album". Then I found out the the extra one (#11 actually) was supposed to go to the swap mom! Silly me! Making multiples is DEFINITELY not my thing! Phew!

Finally, I just love this card! Another "CASE", at least most of one, and the Chocolate Chip and Sage Shadow colors just ROCK together! This is the Tree from the Thoughts and Prayers set, embossed in Gold. Very Elegant - and for my parents 65th wedding anniversary.
