Lots of Birthdays

There have been lots of birthdays to make cards for these last couple of months. It seems like there will be a whole lot all together and then no birthdays for months and months! I just need the slightest bit of an excuse to make someone a b-day card and I'm happy :) I made the blooms with the Cricut Doodlecharms cartridge and then hand sewed the stems and petal details with embroidery floss and little buttons. I made the dragonfly with the Doodlecharms cartridge also and added some stitching to his wings. The sentiment is from Gina K Designs.

Gettin' Creative Again

I've had a creative dry spell lately but have been working on a few cards. This is one I made using Gina K Designs stamps, my fav Rob and Bob Super Slab pp and Copics. That sundae makes me crave some frozen yogurt!

What I've Been Up To

I haven't been doing too much creating lately since I've been busy with another hobby: running. I am in the best shape of my life and owe it to running, strength training and core workouts. To quote Jeff Corwin, "Running is like my fetish, my addiction. It's always present. I'm constantly thinking about my next run." By no means am I ready for a marathon or even a half marathon but the more miles I log, the closer I get to achieving more of my personal goals.
