Now I am getting my groove on with making cards! My hubby created a beautiful craft room for me-I can't believe the room which I can now fill up with more crap. The first card is for my best friend who loves yellow and purple and flowers are always nice. The second was for my brother whose favourite colour is green and he lives, dreams and eats baseball (well not the latter, that would be gross). The last 2, I got my Kay Thompson in groove (the song "Think Pink" from Funny Face) and actually made really girly cards. The first one is for my cousin who had a baby. The last card is for my friend who lost her pug a couple of weeks back. That pug was her baby and she is devastated. Miss Sydney had a great life though-she ate better than her parents! Miss Syd would have home-made salmon while they ate pizza. Animals are wonderful creatures and deserve the best. Now look it, I am talking more about Miss Syd than the baby that was born..um....of which I can't remember the name...oh well-It's a girl.
Which is your fav? I bet the guys will pick pink:)

Have I mentioned how much you make me laugh? "I can't believe the room which I can now fill up with more crap. " - LOL! I also had to laugh at your side note that your brother didn't actually eat baseball. That's my favorite card, actually. It would be perfect for my dad!
ReplyDeleteLaughing is always great so thank you:) I liked that card too and it helped getting rid of some bits and pieces(of which I have many)
DeleteTell your brother there are better ways to get fiber outside of eating baseballs.
ReplyDeleteCards are nice!
And a whole craft room for you? Imagine the creations that will come out of it.
I will tell my brother that bran is better than baseball:)
DeleteI like the pink one :) I liked reading about Miss Sydney. It is good to know of other dogs that could possibly have been more spoiled than Koda. I am sorry for your friend's loss though; I can understand how devastated she would be!

My friend loved the card and she made a special garden just for Sydaney
DeleteI love these cards - especially the baseball one! I am sorry to hear about Miss Sydney :(
ReplyDeleteThank you:) Miss Sydney has a garden with lavender
DeleteSo funny! Go you with the craft room. We share a study, but although I use it more it's his crap that is taking over.
ReplyDeleteI like the baseball card - don't care about baseball in the slightest, but it could easily be adapted - and the one for the baby. I'm not so much a hearts-and-flowers girl.
The baseball one could be adapted to anything actually-you are right!
DeleteStamping seems like the coolest hobby. So useful! My stepmother makes all her own cards and I always look forward to receiving them in the mail.
ReplyDeleteIt is a lot of fun and I enjoy it immensely
DeletePretty fancy, and impressive!
ReplyDeleteThank you:)
DeleteAdorable cards - my favourite is the third one - gorgeous image! So glad you linked up with us at Glitter n Sparkle for our Must Use Pink challenge. Best of luck in our prize draw!

I like the 3rd one too-I thought I would try actual lace for the background
DeleteThese are gorgeous and so much more meaningful than a Hallmark.

I think my favorite is the baseball card, and I don't even like baseball. (I hear that a local team is in the playoffs or something, but I'm not even sure. That's how little I like baseball.)
ReplyDeleteOh I am with you about baseball and most sports unless it is the Olympics
DeleteLove the cards, especially the first and last.
ReplyDeleteYou are so lucky to have a craft room. My crap is spread all over the house and by the time I find what I'm looking for I don't have time to make anything! I like the baseball card the best. My husband has already started his annual mourning the end of baseball season. Our home team has had another very bad season which did mean that he was able to get really good seats for very little money. Yup he loves baseball so much that he goes to games where the stadium is nearly empty... I go to one game a year and spend a great deal of my time walking around and checking out the various food options.
ReplyDeleteOh I would not like going to an actual game as I just don't get it. I find it funny that manly men get all excited about chasing a ball...hmmmmm
DeleteCongratulations on getting your own craft room! And having seen your beautiful craft creations that you have shared here, including these lovely cards, I am sure you will make excellent use of your own creative space :) Enjoy and keep creating. Beautiful creations, Birgit!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much and I will enjoy the room:)
DeleteVery creative. My favorite is the third one.
ReplyDeleteAww, you made me smile talking about the little pug. My next door neighbors have a pug and I get such a kick out of her. I can imagine her wanting salmon too, pizza would never do LOL.
ReplyDeleteAll of these cards are wonderful. You really are so talented.
Thank you:) My friend is getting another pug and the face is priceless. She needs to fill up the empty home
DeleteNice card. Thanks for joining us at Dream Valley Challenges.

Thank you:)
DeleteI've never seen anything like your cards - they're awesome! I'm totally in love with the Valentine's one! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you-Glad you like seeing them:)
DeleteAt long last! We have cards ... and gorgeous one too. my fave would be the pink. Baby? What baby? I thought this post is all about Miss Syd. :) Isn't great you've got your own little cave. Now you can go out foraging, hunting and dragging home more S-crap. That's 21st century equality!

I know, my cards have been missed..by me making them mostly:) The post is about Miss Syd mainly. My cousin did have a baby but , um, I love animals and I am OK with kids-lol I love some kids but I love all animals-I know I am a bad girl
DeleteEnjoy the remains of your Sunday.
ReplyDeleteIt was a fun day but today tired
DeleteAwesome cards, Birgit! The last one is my favorite.
ReplyDeleteWe're almost past Monday. Thank goodness.
ReplyDeleteTuesday has arrived! Soon ISWG Day:)
DeleteI like all of your cards but my favorite is the pink one. I love pink. Have fun filling up your new craft room. I'm sure that you will put it to good use. Thanks again for your sweet blog support. Your comments mean a lot to me. Have a great week. Hugs, Lura
ReplyDeleteI had a feeling you would like the pink one:) I have a tea cup stamp and thought of you when I got this. Take care
DeleteI'm partial to the one with the hearts and flowers! I'm so old fashioned. These are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty card!
ReplyDeleteThanks for joining us at Eclectic Ellapu and I hope we see you again soon!
