TWO-FER CARD CHALLENGE #35 ~ BALLOONS

Hi friends, I hope all is well with you.

We are in the middle of some winter weather here in the Pacific Northwest!

We have maybe 5 inches of snow, but on top of the snow is frozen rain.

My granddaughter came over to ask if I wanted to go sledding with her (absolutely, YES!)

And when I came out she was laying on the snow trying to do a snow angel, she managed to push on her legs and make an imprint, but not so the "wings"  that is how hard the snow is!

But even if we couldn't build a snowman, we sure had fun sledding because it had a nice ice on top!

 

I am joining in the TWO-FER CARD challenge today and it is all about balloons.

I took a Sunny Studios stamp set called "Bold Balloons"

I used the one that is a star and made a 4th of July card stamping with red, white and blue!

My other card is a birthday card and I have a rainbow of star balloons attached to a "big balloon!

I put up the "rules" for the TWO-FER challenge...use a stamp, die or stencil and make two different cards for two different occasions ...and the design needs to be unique for each one!  There are more explanations at the site if you need to be reminded about the rules!

 

Oh and good news, I have my vaccine shot scheduled for Monday Feb 22, the day it opens for the 70+ age group!  My Dad who is 99 will get his this coming Thursday!~

Have a great weekened!

Seize the Birthday ~ HEARTS!

Hi friends!  So glad you stopped by to look at another card for the Seize the Birthday Challenge

the prompt is given to us by our leader Nancy!

There is a VERY special friend whose birthday is actually the day before Valentines so I thought this would be a perfect birthday card for her...it is getting posted a bit early, but maybe she will be surprised to see this in her mail box (oh who am I kidding, she knows who she is...!! and won't be a bit surprised!)

I had fun pulling out Sunny Studios Bold Balloons and inking them up to make a birthday balloon bouquet just for her!  I fussy cut each one too, now isn't that showing some love!

Our "Topping" option this time is...

 

 

If you're not a toppings kinda person, well.....you can just
stick with our usual "Anything Goes"Birthday!

 

"SEE YOU IN THE GALLEY!"
