More Birthday Cards



Crikey, where does all the time go - can't believe it's a week since I last posted. Well as promised, these are more cards I made to take into work. They have decided they are not going to buy my cards as they are too nice and may get damaged being passed around so many people, suppose I'm flattered but it would have been nice to make a little money back to fund my hobby!

I have finally started on my Christmas cards, and I'm also trying to force myself to use stamps that I have either not used before (bad stamper!!) or have not used for a long time & have trouble thinking of a layout for - it's quite a challenge & I've had to sort out a pile of stamps to work on.

The other thing I've realised is that I have soo much Christmas paper, I keep buying more every year, but haven't used up last years, or the year befores, or the year before that!

note to self DO NOT BUY ANY MORE CHRISTMAS PAPER!!!!

Over on Tracy and Anna's blogs, I found this "which of the five senses are you?", quite interesting, and apparently I am this one:




You are the Sense of Sight



You are a very observant, detail oriented person.

You are able to take in a lot of information at once.

You often see things that other people never notice.



You have a good eye for design and aesthetics.

You love to be surrounded by beauty - natural or not.

When you imagine how something should look, you see it clearly in your mind.

Lovely cards Rachel. I like the way you used the flower stamp. The PP is beautiful.

Good for you, working on your Christmas cards early! I'm sure once December rolls around, you will be glad you did.

Sorry that they don't want to buy your cards. It is probably for the best, since they might not appreciate them as much as your cards deserve!
