BD card for Mom

I know it's been forever since I've posted... been making cards but no time to post.. so I though I better post a few I still have before sending, like the rest I've been making...

I saw this somewhere and had to try it... took a couple of tries before I liked the look so here goes.
The front's not much simple and clean.  
You SU gals will remember this stamp called "Upsy Daisy" it's what I call a shadow stamp, but I used color Zig to do my stamping... I like the water color look it gave the flowers too... But like I said not much going on here.


But on the inside it explodes with color and this 3D bundle of flowers.  

It was not easy to take pics of let me tell you... but here's a shot of the inside open with the saying and yes there's room behind the glass plate to even write nice things.... 
I know my Mom's going to LOVE this... she's going to be 96 and just Loves looking at all my creations... she is my test person with this one.... If she can make it work anyone can.

Ho Ho Ho

 Here's a card I just finished making a bunch of for mailing.  Love how they turned out...I made 2 versions, see what you think.

I used Desert Storm paper for the base for both and the Ho Ho Ho is from CTMH and then just colored them in a little and used a little Diamond Stickles on the first Ho. Then just tied a little backers twine thru the cut out.  I did do a little shading around the whole in the front too.


The main stamp at the bottom is an old Stampin' Up set called Holiday Lineup, there are 3 stamps in this set but I've only used two of them as in Florida we don't have snow so the snow men lineup is just an extra for me.   As you can see I just colored the little guys that show thru the whole in the front of the card, and added stickles and shading around the whole so it stands out.  The  saying is from MFT another old set I have called Stitched Stockings... And at the very bottom I cut strips of scrap paper I had that would fill that gap a little....

 Will that's it for me today..

Manly BD....

I'm really working ahead on my BD cards.... can't believe it....
Here's one for my Step-Son I know he will enjoy, it gets harder to come up with something new each year... and now that he's in his late 30's will..... I still want him to smile when he see's his cards.

















The first car he ever bought with NO input from his Dad or me was a used Mustang.....Oh My!!! Now there were a LOT of memories...... Good and Bad..... He was so proud of himself.......

















And here's the inside....

Flippin Diet Lady's Birthday

 Here's a card I really enjoyed making..... Had these Ladies Flippin stamps for a few years now but only used a few... this is my first try with this one....
See what you think.
I made this for my Daughter-in-law and like all of us she is always battling with her weight.  Sooo when I was thinking of her card I came across this one and had to give it a try.... 

Some people can take this kind of card and enjoy the fun it is intended.... I know she will love it and look forward to her reaction....

Backyard Boss

Today I'm posting the card I made for my Hubby's BD....
He just got a new blower a few weeks ago, so when I found this stamp by Art Impressions I had to get it....(I got it on Ebay from Ali's Scrapbook Outlet, she was very good to work with, and grate prices too.)
And here he is all ready for battle..... 
I used a mini Wobbler on him so he has some action too.
 

And the Inside I left simple, room for my note and a little cash too... He'll LOVE that I know.
Will that's it for today!
