Another set for the box of cards and more

So I guess I got used to making tons of cards for my SIL. Today, I sat down and decided I would see how many card I could make out of two sheets of designer paper from the Target pack I bought last week. It turns out 10 is the answer. I could have probably squeezed out one or two more, but I lost steam :) I like them. They are mostly Garden Whimsy and Short and Sweet stamps. There are are a few miscellaneous dollars stamps and another random set thrown in. The ink is all certainly celery. There is a little white ribbon and some flowers on the cards. The little flowers are also Target Dollar Spot finds from earlier in the year. The paper actually looks prettier in person. My photo editing software and I were not getting along today. She and my brother are coming back in on Monday. I might give her these to add to her box of cards. If I pull two out of what I have done this week to go with them, that would give her 75. That sounds like a good number :)





Here are the two cards Mom made. I really like the happy birthday card. Simple and cute. It is from little hellos.




The other card is a thank you mom made with her new oval punches. You know that really happy feeling when you get it all lined up and the stamp in the right place? It was fun to watch.


Hope you have a good day!
