Patty's 2024 Birthday Card

My sweet friend, Patty, is celebrating her birthday in early November!
I chose the beautiful 49 and Market Vintage Artistry Moonlit Garden collection 
to make her 6" x 8" card and the envelopes to put it in.

The shaker on her card is situated among pretty mulberry paper flowers.
I filled it with two tones of blue sequins.

The top of the card, above the shaker and flowers,
 is adorned with Dusty Attic's mini chipboard,
inked in a very dark Navy Blue.

Among the flowers are beautiful ReneaBouquets butterflies
 and a laser cut element reminding Patty "Time to Enjoy".

This word rub-on in the collection was very fitting!


The birthday sentiment is printed using Monotype Corsiva font,
which happens to be a favorite of mine.

Laser cut wildflowers & elements, postage stamp washi tape
 and chipboard butterflies decorate the back of the card beautifully.




These are the box-in-box envelopes that hold the card.

Since this collection is so beautiful 
and Patty loves to read, 
I thought of making her some bookmarks!

Using the 6" x 8" papers, 
I cut two bookmarks into 2-3/4" wide x 7" long size 
and decorated them with rub-ons 
and then laminated them. 

These are the fronts.

These are the backsides.

I decorated this one with two rub-ons.
The green one between the butterflies
and the brown one at the bottom.

I used the black moths rub-on
on the backside. 

The rub-ons on the next one
are the yellow stem flowers at the top, 
with the greenish butterfly next to it.
I also put one postage stamp washi tape too!

The backside is too beautiful
of a print to add anything to it!

Making these bookmarks was a fun project!


Thanks again for the visit!
Hope everyone is doing well and may God bless your day!

A great big Happy Birthday to sweet Patty!

Kay's 2024 Birthday Card

 Even though this collection looks like Spring and we've now entered the Fall season, I wanted to make Kay's birthday card with it because she loves pink.

I usually add mulberry flowers to all of my cards,
but I did something a little different this time.
I utilized the chipboard & laser cut elements in the collection instead!
They are so beautiful!

Of course, there's a shaker, 
as has been on all of my 2024 birthday card creations.
It's placed on top of a pretty die and filled with colorful flowers.


I always love ReneaBouquets products!
This beautiful pink hummingbird is no exception.
I added white & pink stickles to give it some glitz & glam!

I made a tiny 3" x 2" x 1/4" pocket;
then filled it with journaling cards that are corner punched in a scallop design.
Most are decorated with chipboard or a laser cut element.
Something different and cute!

These are the little cards that go into the pocket.


The backside sentiment is printed in pink on white cardstock using the font Montotype Corsiva.

Beautiful Rub-ons decorated it nicely!



Using the collection's chipboard, I decorated the larger 
of the two box-in-box envelopes that hold this card.


Thanks for dropping by!
Have a wonderfully blessed day,
Lisa
