Birthday Cards & Fun

WOW; what a busy weekend we've had! Our two girls had basketball games on Saturday; one at 8 a.m. (MUCH TOO early for a Saturday); the other at noon. Then today, Sunday, two of our babes had b-day parties to attend.

I made these two cards with the "curly surpriseabella" from http://www.stampingfreak.com/; I LOVE these stamps! I don't even have the stamp mounted on foam yet; I just stamped it 'as is' and the image turned out great! I made an extra one to keep for my upcoming craft show. Our daughter chose the "bella" with blonde hair for the birthday girl. I added some crystals to the other one (brown hair) and I like the sparkle they give the card. The ribbon is from Michael's - they were having a sell on ribbon...just ask my girls; I'm addicted. LOL!

This card was for the other birthday party we had to attend; the inside says "It's your birthday....go HOG wild!". The card is mounted on black cardstock. I really like these colors together and as you can see...I can't seem to do a card without ribbon.

AND I have a new toy....can anyone guess what it is? Oh come on; anyone that knows me well will know what I got!?! Think hard and submit your guess by clicking on COMMENTS. It's always fun to see what everyone says and yes, I read every single comment!!

Hope you have a great week and for those of you that have Monday off - enjoy the day!
