How was your weekend? We went to Pancakes at the Rocks today with our work friends. Oh so yum {drool!} I had the all-day breakfast of Pancakes, Egg and
Hash which is delicious (and so American cos I put Maple Syrup over pancakes and the Hash!) Hope you did something fun as well!I made these cards last weekend using the Stampin Up set "Aviary" which is from the new Summer Mini Catalogue. I was SO HOPING that this set would become available in Australia cos I had seen it on Splitcoast stampers and loved it and wanted it! Of course all things birds and birdcages are hot at the moment, which suits me cos I have lots of bird stuff and I love it! I dug out some Heidi Grace paper and paired it with SU's retired colours Cool Carribean and Groovy guava which matched the PP perfectly! The sentiment and label shape are from SU's set "Great Friend". I love stamps that look like handwriting and this "for you" sentiment is one of my fave's. It's
also a super versatile phrase cos it means you're not locked into using the card for one event it could be used for anything e.g.birthday/anniversary/thanks etc. I dug out some organza ribbon and pearls and voila! The Cards are done! I love this set cos it has a few different birdcages and the birds are separate stamps so you can put any bird/birds in any cage. I already have heaps of ideas flowing around in my head for more cards, I hope the pain in my back (possibly a tiny foot or some of my internalorgans trying to work their way out!) gets better soon and I can sit for longer at my desk! I did make the 2 similar cards at the same time which is what I always do cos it's so easy as you've already got all the stuff out kicking around your desk!
I hope you have a great week!
