thank you

Maureen is always known for her creative cards.  This time she had us punch holes in the sides of a label punch to weave the ribbon through for our ladies card night.  It's so simple yet so stunning!

happy birthday

I went to a Stampin' Up! workshop this weekend with Pam Hirschberg.  I had a great time chatting, catching up with friends, and crafting.  We made three cards and had access to Pam's big shot and the Stampin' Up! embossing folders.

This first one started out as a tag, but since I rarely use tags (I just love shipping straight from Amazon to people), I attached it to a card at home.

all Stampin' Up! goodies except the "Happy Birthday" stamp is A Muse and the chai ink is from Papertrey
