Thank You Very Much!

Hello Everyone!  Still having some computer issues, it works when it wants to.  Sorry I haven't been commenting as much as I usually do but sometimes I simply can't.  I a couple of cards to share today, but first I want to say a big THANK YOU to my daughter and all of the ladies that participated in the surprise birthday blog hop!  I was totally surprised and sooooooo excited!!!!!!!  I would also like to say THANK YOU for all of the birthday wishes, I have the best followers and bloggie friends.  

 

 

This week, I decided to try out some dies.  I very rarely use them but thought I'ld give it a try.  The banner on the Thank You card is from Verve.  And the flags/banners on the birthday card is from MFT.  I'm hoping to experiment with some dies soon!  My "Thank You" stamp is from Hero Arts and the birthday stamps are from Paper Trey Ink.

Don't forget to head over to Nana's Scrap Spot to see who won the blog candy!  She picked one winner from my blog!!!!

Thanks for stopping by and Have a Great Weekend!

Now onto my card for today.....I created a birthday card to share with you guys today.  Take a look, tell me what you think. 

 

This card was actually rather simple to make.  It's a 5 X 7 card and all of my paper is from Recollections.  I basically matted this gorgeous paper on to my card base to create the card.  The butterfly on the front of my card was cut from the Picturesque Cricut Cartridge and was cut at 1 3/4 inches.  My ribbon is from Walmart and the sentiment is from DRS. 

 

For the inside of the card, I just matted another piece of that gorgeous paper that had a printed butterfly and space to write!  

Thanks for stopping by today, enjoy the rest of your week.
