Birthday Cards & Projects

These 2 cards are for very good friends birthday which is this Thursday. They are twins and, believe me, it is easier to make the same card but I didn't do that because they are twins. We have been friends since the age of 9. Flowers and bees are summertime themes for birthday cards which is what I did here. The flower card is a double Z fold and the bee card is made with Tim Holtz stencil and paste to make the hive. My sisters and I are getting ready for a craft fair that we are doing in Kennebunk on August 14th. Here are a few projects that I have finished this week.

I might have showed these "Welcome" & "Hello" signs before but I love making them with pizza tins from the Dollar Store! Enjoy your day!

Sexy Seventy

Here is a flamingo birthday card for a very special friend's birthday who just turned 70! Such a wonderful milestone! This is a Z fold card to show off these fun flamingos. The flamingos are from Elizabeth Craft and the leaves and stamped flowers are from Stampin up. The paper collection is beautiful and it is from Julia Nutting.

Here is one of her birthday gifts. Yes, you guessed it, her name is Cindy! My sister and I got together and made this for Cindy. We had such fun making it especially since we had some great pictures to choose! Cindy is so photogenic! I wish she had a longer name!! LOL! If you can't tell from the pictures she loves Disney, flamingos, Donald Duck and hats! Again, this was such fun to make for her!! Love you Cindy and Happy Birthday!!
