Card for Amber

 Hello, Glad you could stop by. Today I wanted to share a card that I made for my Great Niece Amber for her birthday.

Haven't seen Amber In a while she Is In the Air Force. Since she can't be home for her birthday. I wanted to send her a card (From her favorite Aunt of course).







Since Amber Is In the Air Force she loves anything Red, White and Blue. She even does her Christmas Tree In Red, White and Blue.
So I wanted to do her card in In those colors. But thought the dark blue was just to dark for a fun Birthday Card so I used a lighter blue. Thought that looked a little better. 

Used the Stampin Up Stamp Set called "Sweet Scoops" and I also used a Stampendous Stamp Set called "Happy Messages" for the sentiment.

Swirls from S.U. Stamp Set called Stars and Swirls 

Stars from S.U. Stamp Set called Classic Backgrounds

S.U, Scallop Punch

 Cardstock - Kraft White and Blue

Ink- Real Red and Marina Mist (The Marina Mist was once stamped off to match the blue cardstock).

I wanted to get this post done early because I am going to focus on cleaning a lot today. Hope you have a great day and Thanks for stopping by.

So I am sharing the card that I have made him for his graduation.

As some of you might know I had emergency surgery back In February and then had to go to a Nursing Home for a month and a half for rehabilitation. I was never so glad to get home.

I missed a lot of things while gone and one of those was being In my craft room doing one of my favorite things (Crafting).

Since the Nurses, Therapist and all the other staff from the Nursing Home was so nice and helpful I wanted to send them a card to show my appreciation. 

I made two separate cards one for the Therapist and one for the Nurses and everyone else. Just sharing a picture of one because they are just alike.






 Here Is a list of the things I used to make both cards.

These Cards were very simple to make and I do love simple. Thanks for stopping by. Hope you have wonderful Day and remember to not take things for granted. Take Care and God Bless!
