Happy Birthday Pennants

How are you this Monday? Happy to 'see' you! We'll be having a lovely day here in North Carolina after some tornadoes rolled through on Saturday! All is fine in our neighborhood. A tree fell down next door and didn't hit anything, fortunately!

I have a card share for you! I made another card with the some fabulous Girls' Paperie papers!


I created these little pennants with a pattern I created. Someone should make a punch in this shape!


I used some fancy little shaped toothpicks for my flags.


The blue border punch is from Martha Stewart and the little butterfly punch is an old Paper Shapers punch. It's been used quite a bit and doesn't cut as cleanly anymore. Some inking, stitching and a stamped sentiment were the finishing touches.

I like to keep my favorite cards and this one might be a keeper? I just love the bright colors and happy patterns. A lot of the cards I keep are placed around the house. They make nice little accents and I'd rather see them here and there than to throw them in a box somewhere. What do you do with all your cards? I just had an idea of putting some of my favorites in an album, the kind with pockets for photos. I wonder if they make that size pocket?

Hope you have a great day! Our son is home this week for Spring Break. It will be a mix of relaxing and working this week. How about you?  :) Kathy

Happy Birthday

Hi! :)

I have a birthday card share for you! :) Last night I was working with some adorable new papers from The Girls' Paperie, their new Kitch line. I LOVE these papers! I'll need to buy a second set because I am so smitten with them!


Just look at these paper colors and patterns! (sigh)


And how about the crochet flowers? I just got those in the mail yesterday from a fabulous site on Etsy called Sunshine Stitches. I'll be a regular at that shop! :)


I added my usual inked edges, hand stitching and buttons. :)


The sentiment is a Pebbles Inc rub on and the stacked flower buttons are Pebbles as well. I made the little butterfly pin with an old Paper Shapers punch and a sewing pin.

Well, I'm off. Always lots to do. Never a dull moment, right? I have packages for the post office, weeds to pull in the yard, a couple fabulous new Two Peas in a Bucket digital kits to make projects for. The list goes on, but you get the idea. The old list probably looks a like like yours! Hope it's a great day for you! :) Kathy
