Another Anniversary Card + A Party for 3

As promised yesterday, today I have another anniversary card to show you. And don't you love it when you've got an idea in your head and it actually comes out as planned. I've had this gorgeous DeNami Design heart stamp for quite a while and I've tried to use it several times, but it never really worked out. This time it did.

Supplies - Cardstock: Bazzill Basics, Patterned Paper: Collage Press, + Scenic Route, Ribbon: local haberdashery, Rubber stamp: DeNami Design, Ink: Rangers Distress Ink, Chipboard: Fancy Pants, Embossing Powder: Rangers, Brad: Queen & Co., Border Punch: Martha Stewart, Heart die: Sizzix.

With school starting again next week, the parties are also back. Last night I had the task of making three cards for a combined birthday party Renee is having this morning. Some of you might remember that Renee couldn't go to the same school as her siblings last year, because there was no place for her. She was, however No. 1 on the waiting list. Two weeks before the end of the Summer term, someone announced they were moving and not return to the same school starting in the Autumn. So, as of Wednesday she will be joining Rebecca and Ruben to the same school. The party this morning is for three of her new classmates. A great opportunity to meet everyone before school starts.

This one's for Elliott:

This one's for Matthew:

And finally this one's for Ella:

Supplies - Cardstock: Bazzill Basics, Patterned Paper + Ribbon + Chipboard die-cut: Cosmo Cricket 'Earth Love' + 'The Boyfriend', Foam Thickers: American Crafts, buttons, Marker: Zig EK Success, Clear stamp: Papertrey Ink, Ink: Staz'On (Timber Brown), VersaColor (Umber), Border Punch: Fiskars Uppercrest, Star die: Sizzix.

I feared starting a project at 9.30 p.m. on a Saturday evening would be a set-up for disaster, but I'm quite pleased with the outcome.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend. We're having an extra long one, due to the Bank Holiday tomorrow.
