Robin's Birthday Card

I made this card for my son, John-Robert's girlfriend Robin....she is such a sweetheart... I am not sure if I am going to give her this one or make a new one... one minute I look at it and love it ...the next I am not so sure.... its different for me.... so its hard for me to know if I even think its pretty...what do you think??... Thanks for looking...~~Jeannie

You Are a Delight

I made this for a young lady I work with... Christen (sp?).... she has made work a delight for me.... I love going to work on the days I know she is going to be there ... the card started with the fancy paper...which is hard to use sometimes... to me anyway.... then the cuts from my new Storybook Cricut cartridge..... then it needed something more so I got out my definition stamps and when I saw delight I knew this card had to be for Christen .... I hope that she likes it!! ~~Jeannie

Except for my "Letter from Heaven" card that I made for my dear husband, Robby this is the first card that I felt "wow" about when I finished... I hope this means I am back in the grove of things so to speak... I prayed for this card as I do many.... part of it was in my head Wednesday afternoon but I didn't have paper I thought would work...today I went to Hobby Lobby and there it was the PERFECT background paper for my idea... oh I hope everyone likes this one..~~Jeannie
