Birthday Cards for Daughters Born in January

Two of my daughters were born in January six years apart. This year their sisters and I were able to help them celebrate their birthdays together in Sedona at the beautiful Enchantment Spa and Resort . A side tour to the Grand Canyon was also taken during our wonderful long weekend in the middle of January.

The first card was made for my oldest child who celebrated her 50th birthday. The card is 5.25 X 6.25.

Birthday Card for My Sister

I have one sister who was born on my 3rd birthday in June many years ago. She is very special, because fourteen years ago she became a heart recipient and is doing very well. She has always loved being fashionable, so I couldn't resist making this birthday card and envelope for her.

 I designed the card using the Gypsy with Cricut cartridges Forever Young and Ashlyn's Alphabet. The shapes and wordings for the card were cut using the Cricut Expression. Embossing was done with the Cuttlebug and a Cuttlebug folder. The envelope was made with the aid of a Martha Stewart Scoring board.

Products used  Cardstock: The Paper Company, DCWV(La Creme and At Home); Paper: K & Company; Acetate:from packaging; Rhinestone: Studio 18; Gel Pen: Sakura; Ribbon( I don't know)
