Happy Birthday, Dad!

I have a sick kid home from school today with a fever and a sore throat, but I wanted to post this card. Today is my dad's birthday. This card didn't get to him in time, so I wanted to show it here.

The sentiment is a combination of a Stampin' Up stamp and alphabet stamps from Lawn Fawn. I did add a comma after "happy birthday", but I took this photo before doing that addition.

Thanks for stopping by and I'm hoping you manage to stay healthy during this cold and flu season.

A Little Message For You

Hola Chicas! I made this card several days ago, but I'm only now getting it on my blog. I have a few minutes while I'm waiting for a technician to deliver and install our new dishwasher. Our good friends from Texas will arrive this evening, so I've been getting the house in order.

I ordered this Lawn Fawn stamp set last month, and I've been itching to ink it up. I've had this stamp set hanging on my desk, so I see it everytime I sit down. I'm very happy for designers like Kelly Marie Alvarez, who have launched their own stamp companies this year. I had the pleasure of meeting her in Anaheim in January at the CHA Supershow. Check out her line of stamps here.

Adios!
