Continuing the run of birthdays is this card I made for my grandson’s 18th birthday. Have a great one Sam.
I hope he manages to achieve all his ambitions in life. I was just thinking how nice it would be to have your life all over again. There are so many more opportunities today than there were when I was that age. If I had been able to have all these choices then I wonder what path I would have chosen. Now that’s food for thought!!!
The first family member to have a birthday this year (apart from me!) was my youngest grandson who turned 12 about 12 days ago. I should have put his card up here sooner.
I used the cute weightlifter from the Stampin’ Up Under the Big Top set. Why did I pick this stamp? Well TJ was in a musical production “Seussical:” last year and this is the part he played. Gee he just looked so spunky!
Gosh he will be a teenager next year and that will be the last of my “little” grandsons. Why do they grow up so fast?
Before I show you this card I would like to reassure everyone that yes, even though I have resigned as an SU demonstrator, I will definitely still be posting to my blog.
A card I made using a technique with the Top Note die that I saw here. Don’t you agree that it is very cute?
Just to let everyone know that I have resigned as a Stampin’ Up demonstrator, although of late due to my illnesses I have only been a hobby demonstrator. As I seem to have bought so much stuff in the past couple of years, I can’t justify buying more and more goodies just to keep my status current. I actually have to start using everything I have stockpiled before I make any more major purchases though (discreet cough) I could be persuaded when all the tempting new goodies come out in the next catalogue!
Nothing much will change as I am still committed to using SU product in my cards and scrapbooking – just love it all. I will just be a customer instead of a demonstrator.
Now to start creating so that I can use up some of my stock.
Yes, I was “up in the air” when a dear friend gave me this lovely Hostess stamp set. So cute!
I made two cards using one of the stamps but wasn’t quite sure which I liked the best. What do you think?
Feeling a bit depressed at present. Saw the haematology specialist yesterday after spending about 3 hours having an infusion of a bone strengthening drug. Looks like the chemotherapy treatments are going to go on and on indefinitely and the thought of spending the rest of my life dealing with these treatments and their side effects is depressing. Can’t seem to get my head around this myeloma cancer. Oh well, guess I shall just have to pick myself up and carry on and stop my complaining.
Must admit it has been nice to see some summer weather (at last!) although it has been raining today but seems to be clearing up now so hopefully will be nice for the long weekend.
Have a nice one.
