TGIF!

I am SO glad today is Friday...I just wish it was going to be a relaxing weekend!  No such luck though!  This weekend my baby boy turns seven!!  Not sure how the heck that happened...he tells me he just can't help growing up.  Wish I could find some way to slow him down a little!  Anyhow, tomorrow is the big Minion-themed birthday bash...more on that later.  Suffice to say spending Saturday with a house-full of 6 and 7 year-old boys isn't my idea of a restful weekend! 
Not sure I'll have much stamping time this weekend...in the hope that you will, here is a little inspiration for you.  It is another project I created from a repurposed leftover kit for my upcoming card buffet. 

Birthday card featuring the Simply Stars and Perfect Pennants stamp sets.

For this one I didn't change much from the original design...I simply changed the stamp set I used for the background and added texture with the Decorative Dots TIEF.  (By the way, did you know that TIEF is going to be in the new Annual Catalogue?  If you missed out on it during Sale-a-bration you can still purchase it beginning June 1st!)

The colour scheme is Coastal Cabana, Basic Gray and Real Red...suitable for just about anyone.  I love having generic cards like this on-hand for those card emergencies!

This is another one of the projects that will be available at my Brides, Babies and Birthdays buffet coming up on April 24th and 25th.  The session on the 25th is currently full, but there is still space on the 24th if you haven't yet registered.  Click the Upcoming Classes tab at the top of this page for details.  In the meantime, have a great weekend!
