Birthday Card/ Delight yourself in the Lord



I'm posting another birthday card today, because who doesn't need birthday cards? It seems if I don't continue making them I don't have any when I need one. This card today will be linked to VivaLa Verve February Sketch challenge and Seize the Birthday. I've had these papers picked out for almost a week and hadn't used them. I was waiting for the right layout.Then when I saw the Verve challenge, I knew that was the project to use them on.







Card inside

The papers are all retired, I believe. I used a SU 2 1/2 inch punch, a retired embossing folder,and scallop die. The sentiment on the circle on the front is from the Verve stamp set, Scripture Medley 1. An SU set, Bring on the Cake were used to complete the inside. I enjoy using scripture stamps on cards, especially for family and friends. I feel the Word of God is always appropriate and in due season.

That's it again for today. Have a wonderful weekend and as always, go do something you love!

Happy Birthday


Today I'm linking this birthday card to Freshly Made Sketches#323 and  Seize the Birthday with Toppings (candles).



I pulled out SU Party Animal DSP and the Sassy Salutations with matching SU card stock .The oval was cut with the SU Stitched Shapes Framelits. It did come together pretty quickly and the sketch will probably be one I'll use again in the future.


That's it for today. Have a wonderful Thursday and go do something you love!

Live Simply,

Happy Birthday Son






Today's card is one that I will be linking to Paper Craft Crews card sketch challenge #278. Since I always need birthday cards, this is for one of my sons who's birthday is in early March. I decided on I usin the True Gentleman DSP with coordinating solid SU Card Stock  again. I really like this suite and can see myself using it for all the men in my family.


The sentiment is from one of my Paper Pumpkin Kits and the button is from my stash layered on the navy embossed circle. I just added some older twine from SU to give it more interest.

I'm working on another 2 birthday cards today. I have a daughter and granddaughter who have birthdays at the end of the month, so I really need to get them done now. If I don't, I'll be scrambling. Do you ever run into that scenario?

Have a great day and go do something you love!
