Perfectly Packaged

I think most of us would agree that birthday cards are the most frequently used greeting. I found this card to be one that I can adapt over and over again by changing the colors, depending on who I am giving it to. This bright, cheery card would be perfect for a girlfriend, mom or sister but with a quick change in the colors it would be suitable for any guy on your birthday card list.

I stamped the image in Jet Black Staz On onto the Whisper White cardstock and the again on several scraps of designer paper. I cut out the boxes and layered them on the original image with a Dimensional. Of course, the ever-popular banners are added for some dimension.

Supplies:

Stamp Set: Best of Shelli #133488 (clear mount only); Sassy Salutations #132070 wood, #126707 clear
Cardstock: Whisper White, Strawberry Slush, Pool Party
Ink Pad: Jet Black Staz On
Designer Paper: Quarterfancy #130141
Accessories: Dimensionals, SNAIL Adhesive

Creativity for a Cause

I serve as the assistant lead on behalf of Stampin' Up! for the Ronald McDonald House in Tampa, FL. It is my responsibility to ensure all 14 guest rooms are stocked with hand-stamped greeting cards for the families to use during their stay. The RMH uses approximately 300 cards per month and I need more “manpower” to help me create them. This is where your group (Women’s ministry, group of neighbors, friends, Bible study, Mom’s group, Bunco group, etc.) comes in. I will provide pre-designed, pre-cut pieces that are ready to be stamped and assemble. I ask for a $5 donation, per person, to help off set the cost of supplies. I would love to have your help, so together, we can make a difference in our community. For more information or to organize your group, please contact me.
