  • Hey Friends!
    Are you guys ready for another week?? Well my kiddo starts 3rd grade today and I can't wait to share some pictures tomorrow:)

    Today's card is one that I made for my Nephew who's birthday was yesterday.  I love to create simple Cas cards but can you believe this card took me a while to create only because I kept changing things around. I kept telling myself come on Norma this is a simple Cas card why is it taking you so long, LOL!!   Does this ever happen to you?  I hope you enjoy it:)


    Notice the embossing on the Pacific Blue top layer, this is 
    the  "NEW" Alphabet Press Embossing Folder from the 
    Big Catalog which you can buy for only $7.95.  I also used 
    the 2-1/2" Circle punch to punch a circle on top to expose 
    some of the Whisper White for the Basic Black 15

    I popped up the 15 of course to make it a focal point of the 
    card for the Birthday boy! The Dude is a Verve stamp and 
    the Happy Birthday is from a retired Stampin' Up stamp 
    Best Dad Ever Stamp Set


    Isn't the inside cute? I used Lil Inker Dies and a retired 
    Stampin' Up! Stamp for the sentiment

    9. This turned out great! That embossing folder is neat. I sometimes spend forever on simple things, maybe the less there is going on the more perfect we feel what is there has to be... or something... I don't know why but it happens to me too. *LOL*

      Best crafty wishes!
