Birthday cards

Here are some birthday cards that I made last week... the recipients should have them by now (I hope), even though some of them are a tad late! I also made 13 swap card fronts for my up-line/side-line stamping team, but I'll post those a bit later!

A manly set that I love that is unfortunately retiring (Power Up)... the Happy Everything set is also used

Ahoy Matey! A great set for all the dress-up & pirate parties we've been to lately! Ethan's birthday invites, in August, will also be made using this set...

Zoofari... a new whimsical animal set! I didn't love it at first but it kinda grew on me, so I got it! Also used on this one are: some new "Prints Pattern" paper and the new "In Color" Wild Wasabi (dk green) cardstock & ink

Another set I just got because it is retiring (By Air) - it was only out for one catalogue season, so I'm quite sad about that! I tied some ribbon to replace the propeller...

wow these cards are awesome! I love the ribbon on the plane - 2 cute! On the first card, is that a piece of paper you tied the ribbons to or is it another piece of ribbon?

The first one is a buckle card, where the strip you cut off, becomes your "buckle". It is paper cardstock but then has designer paper over top... then ribbon tied around it! As much or as little as you want :)
