Celebrate my Birthday!!


Yup! Today is my birthday and all week long I'm offering a special deal in celebration of me...if you place an order this week of $25 or more I will automatically send you a free 2012 a•muse studio catalog! It's the perfect time to take advantage of the January Spotlight stamp/paper specials - you can get these Valentine stamps at a discount with plenty of time to get busy for that special day! - or don't forget about the retiring a•s products and stamps. After 31 January you won't be able to get these goodies...so send me an email or place your order online at my secure shopping site before midnight, 27 January to get in on my birthday celebration!

PS. If you are in one of my hostess clubs you will be getting one free already - and if you have preordered a catalog and take advantage of this special I will refund you your money...

Card details: I love that I can have matching a•muse products and that is why my ribbon matches my paper so perfectly! They are both sky blue and after I embossed the paper, I rubbed it with a sanding block to let the white core show through...it really adds so much I think! I colored in my cake with copics and then used a ruler and an exacto knife to carefully trim part of it away.

I think this card will be perfect for my Dad's 80th birthday on Friday. I'm so excited to be able to fly out and celebrate with my parents and sister and her family...see? It's a double birthday celebration!!

Cool beans!

I think I picked this up from the Disney channel when my kids were younger - sadly, now they just roll their eyes at me when I say it! But really - fun news! I won the random name pull over at Moxie Fab! Someday I hope to be named a Trigger (card winner) but until that time comes, I'm totally happy.

I totally CASED this card from Seleise - except she used Copics and here I used Tombows for watercoloring. When I saw it, I knew the ladies that come over to stamp in my home would love it and they did.

KEY (ie. lesson learned!): If you watercolor, color the plate first. Next do the brown chocolate cake. Let it dry and then go in with the red layer...otherwise the results will NOT be yummy!

Thanks Seleise for a wonderful card design!!
