Good morning! Happy Fall!
I made two birthday cards for two of my co-workers' birthdays. For the first one, when asking what she wanted on her birthday card this year she replied with "Ok let see, favorite color is black and white, hobbies, no I’m in to gardening, Dogs and sports team I have to say 49ERS and my favorite food is Chinese." I went with the black and white and gardening (sort of), I chose to add just a touch of red...just because. I used 3 DPs from CTMH a Precious Moments image, some red pearls, some black Onyx Liquid Pearl (as black pearls), I used a lady bug die cut, for the sentiment I used a punch from Stamp'in Up that does the indents on the sides, and I added 3 roses. I used the sketch from Moving Along With The Times as my inspiration.
For my other birthday card, when asking my co-worker what she wanted on her card this year, she replied with "
- Favorite Color(s) or color combo(s)? I have been super into sage green lately, and just green in general! My other favorite is light pink.
- Hobbies? I am a big fan of reading, long walks, the Farmer’s Market, and shopping in general lol. My boyfriend and I live right next to the green belt, which is super great for us to walk along to get to the dog park and a lot of fun events downtown. When it gets cooler out, I love to curl up with a good book or listen to a podcast.
- Funny/Punny or Serious? I love serious or funny.
- Pets? Kids? I have a cutie pie all black border collie/huskie/who knows dog named Doc (after Doc Holiday). He is a spoiled only child who gets all the bones and walks in the world (cause he is indeed, a Good Boy).
- Do you collect things, if so, what? I do love collecting fun crystals and rocks! My boyfriend always snags me a cool rock from anywhere we travel. I have a little collection of them on a shelf 😊 My favorite is citrine, which also happens to be my birth stone!
- Sports team? I am not a big sports fan! I suppose BSU by default, but really I mostly go to sports events for the food LOL.
- Food? I AM a big food fan 😉 My favorite would have to either be Thai or Mexican food. I love all things spicy!
Funny how some of my co-workers fill in the questions I ask and other's don't. LOL Anyway...I went with green, reading and border collie. I turned her card into a shaker card. The collie is from a set I got from CraftsUPrint. The book was a draw and cut from Cricut and I did my own sentiment. The roses I found in one of my MANY drawers of goodies (My craft room is over flowing with drawers of goodies).
