2 FRIENDS BIRTHDAYS

Hello people, back with a couple of birthday cards.  The first one is for a lady who has been in our group for about 10 yrs when we called ourselves The Wine and Dine Scrappers.  We had to help her celebrate 60 years of life.  I made a circle easel card for her with a cute Art Impressions image.
Next one is for a crafty lady I met on FB through another friend.  Ms. Letty has attended a couple of our crops and she is a pleasant addition.  Not only is she crafty, but she is an avid reader and a good cook to boot.  Her card came about because I was participating in Friday Nite Chat Challenge over at Scraps of Color.  The challenge was to use some mixed media stuff to make back ground paper and it had to have a circle or a square and it had to be a gate fold card.  I am not into too much mix media/art journal kinda stuff, so it was a challenge for me. I finally decided to use stencils and distressed ink to create my card.  Hope you like it as it is out of the box for me.

  1. Love that circle easel card and all if its "blingage!" And of course, already mentioned the gate-fold card over at SOC. Really like the stenciling and your choice of cardstock color.
