Shabby Vintage

Hello friends!

This is a set of cards that I made for my sisters birthday this Summer. I love this stamp set from Stampin' Up. I have used it many times already and just love the versatility of them.

Aren't the colors delicious? They are called Baja Breeze and Riding Hood Red.

These are the coordinating envelopes that go with it. Mrs. D (my Stampin' Up demonstrator) says "Never send a naked envelope!". So I stamped these with my sisters initial and a pretty flower stamp (also from the same set!).

My Stampin' Up demonstrator has stamping parties that are SO fun to go to. She has the best ideas! If any of you are interested, let me know and I'll invite you to the next one.

Have a beautiful day!
Genevieve

Those are so delicious. :) I like the red lace on the happy birthday one. :)
Do you know? I love sending pretty cards but I don't like making them much. It feels overwhelming to me. I don't know why. Why??
I'm an odd duck that's why.
Anyway...I love these and I love you. :)

Sometimes it overwhelms me too. Usually it's because I don't have any good ideas. But that is what Mrs. D is for! :) I also don't like making cards if it takes me more than 20 minutes. I like being able to make simple cards that are still beautiful. All these cards were really quick. I made 8 cards with matching envelopes in about 1 1/2 hours.
Anyway, I love you too. :) You should come over and make cards sometime with me. Angela wants to make some too. We'll have a little party.

Love,
Genevieve
