Birthdays, Birthdays, Birthdays

So my kids have been sick all week :(, which means I haven't been getting any sleep.  They have sore throats, no voice, and they are wheezing and a coughing.  My daughter is on the very last part of hers, and feeling herself again, but my son...is just at the worst part.  He doesn't like to take medicine, he doesn't want to eat...and he wakes up every single time he coughs.

So, that means that mom is TIRED.  But, I have managed to get in some videos this week--and am planning on getting some good scrapping done this weekend! The grandparents are picking up the kids on Friday, (if they are feeling better) and keeping them til Tuesday.  

So, today I did a simple and quick birthday card, that you can easily adapt to make into any kind of card you need.

Last Card Night for a Little Bit

I was lucky enough to have my sister here for our scrapnight this week.  I was still on a card kick, because it's fast, easy and I feel like I have completed something.  My sister tried her hand at some cards too--and surprised everyone with her natural scrapbooking ability.  I went with a pale green, black and white theme.  I like how the cards turned out, but it is definitely time for me to move back to scrapbook pages.  I am so behind, and I have a good stock of homemade cards for awhile.  So, be looking for some actual layouts in the near future--and if you don't see any--get on my case for slacking! 
The card to the right, is a simple black card, with dry embossed white cardstock, and a white stamped sentiment.  I liked how simply beautiful the embossing was, and didn't want to distract from that. 
This card, is also simple, with a fun printed paper on a black card.  Stamped and layered sentiment- stamp by CTMH
I <3 this star stamp, by CTMH.  I layered the star, and added brads, and tiny staples with Jim Holtz tiny stapler. I like that I can use this card for a boy or a girl. This card again has the black card base, with a white embossed white frame, and a preprinted sentiment.  Ribbon accent.
More green and black :)Some fun flower and rhinestone embellishments!



By this point, I was getting tired--and couldn't get this card "just right" to me...but, I love the saying!


I challenged myself to really concentrate on doing a "boy" card--because they are NOT my specialty.  I just can't seem to leave out the "girly" on anything in my life.  Oh well... This card features a picture hanger accent (very boyish...lol) I punched out the circle and then embossed it
These are a little out of order--but, I was dying to use my new Threading Water Border Punch--and this is what I came up with.  The flowers are cut w/ the cricut and embossed, with rhinestone centers.
Simplicity with a little bling :)


That's it-- 10 cards, 2 glasses of wine, some guacomole, a sister and friends--turned out to be a great night--even though we got 6 inches of snow while we scrapped!! :(
