Anyhoo, I put this card together for our pastor. I usually try to keep it in Spanish as our Pastor is from El Salvador, but time constraints (i.e. I whipped this up in about 15 minutes) dictated that I just grabbed my go-to guy birthday stamp (which is in English - I need to find some Spanish stamps, has anyone seen them sold anywhere?).
Supplies:
Paper: Recollections cream card, Recollections 8x11 plain card stock, the polka dot patterned paper is from a new pack from My Mind's Eye Lime Twist collection (I found it for 1.99 in TJMaxx... as they are usually 6 dollars, I also picked up one another pack that was 3 dollars.), The orange retro looking paper came from a Cosmo Cricket pack of paper, but I can't remember the name of it.
Sentiment: I have had it so long, I don't even remember.... I bought it before I started writing the names down on the actual stamp clear plastic backing
Embellishments: Orange buttons from Michaels dollar aisle, ribbon from a friend
I was worried that it looked a little juvenile, but I didn't have any time to make another one, so I hope that he liked it!
Hope that everyone is getting back into the swing of the school year! PS - They have pumpkin lattes back in Dunkin' Donuts.... Still waiting for the return of Starbucks and in Green Mountain k-cups.....I foresee another purchase of the 80 count pack when they are back in stock for the season!
The card turned out nicely.
ReplyDeleteI saw the sign at Dunkin Donuts about the Pumpkin being back...not sure I've ever had one or if I'd like it...guess I'll consider trying one...but I don't like things too sweet.
Have a great weekend!
I've never tried Dunkin Donuts before but I really like Starbucks. It is a little sweet. I had a co-worker that had just the pumpkin coffee today with no sweetener and she said that was pretty good and she doesn't like sweet drinks either.
