Stand Tall {PP301}

Spending a little time crafting today so I pulled out this cute flamingo stamp set that I've had for a bit but haven't had a chance to use.  I love it with this simple sketch from The Paper Players.  It came together fast and easy.

Here is the sketch

 

Here is my card

Best Wishes Good Friend

This coming week I have a co-worker and good friend moving on to bigger and better things.  It's a good thing but also a very sad time.  I'll miss getting to see her everyday. We've had many great days of laughing, crying and just plain venting to each other.  It's going to be a bit tougher to go to work knowing she won't be there anymore.  I made her these two cards.  One is just from me and the other will be the one all my co-workers sign for her.


This one is just from me.  I wanted to give her just a simple thank you card thanking her for being there when I needed her and to let her know how much I'll miss seeing her every day.

 

 

 

 And this is the one everyone will sign.  She is a groomer so I couldn't pass up creating a card using dogs.  I know she'll get a kick out of it and know that I was thinking of her when I made it.

Fab Friday sketch challenge

I've really been wanting to create some new cards and this sketch over at Fab Friday really inspired me today.  I have a friend that's been going through a rough time and after seeing this sketch a card idea for her just popped into my head.  I can't wait to see what she thinks when she gets it as a surprise in the mail this coming week!!

And here is the card I created for her...

 

 

And here is another card I created for a friend who just lost her grandmother...
