I made my best friend Lorrie a card for her birthday.  I know that there’s nothing unusual about that but thought I’d share it with you anyway.

I used the super cute parcel image from the Best of Shelli. This could lend itself to any occassion, including Christmas.

The card was pretty simple to make but I love this colour combination – Coastal Cabana, Smoky Slate and Calypso Coral.


Stampin’ Up! supplies used :

Stamp sets : Best of Shelli and Bring on the Cake
Ink : Coastal Cabana ink pad and Coastal Cabana, Smoky Slate and Calypso Coral Stampin’ Write Markers
Card Stock : Whisper White, Smoky Slate
Designer Series Paper : 2013-2015 Designer Series Paper Stack – Coastal Cabana
Accessories : Stamp-a-ma-jig, 2-1/2″ Circle and 2-3/8″ Scallop Circle punches, and Dimensionals

I’ll be seeing Lorrie herself in the next couple of days so I will be able to give her the card in person.

Tuesday’s post will be some of the swaps that I made from the shoe box swap that I mentioned in my post on 13 August. There were 15 swaps in total (including mine) and I’ll be sharing the three made with the Flower Shop stamp set.
