Some Super Quick Cards

So, last week, I got an email from our church secretary asking me to make

some birthday & anniversary cards for our local nursing home.

I do this every September and enjoy making cards for it.

However, this past week was crazy....

I worked four days and spent my day off prepping for Sage's birthday party.

But I thought, no problem, I'll make them on Sunday.

Well, Sunday turned out to be a gorgeous day, which we took advantage

of by going for a walk in the Pembina Valley.

A congregational meeting after supper took up most of my evening.

Since I was scheduled to work on Monday & Tuesday (& the cards are due Wed.)

I knew that I needed to get them done..... and done quickly!

I decided to use some premade Anna Griffin embellishments that I'd picked

up last spring at my LSS.

I paired them with some Reverse Confetti stamps

to make some quick CAS cards.

For my first card, I used the birthday sentiment from Beautiful Banners.

For the rest of the birthday cards, I used the birthday sentiment from Label Me.

For the two anniversary cards, I used a combination of sentiments.

I masked the "happy" from Bring On The Merry & stamped

the "anniversary" from So Very Special.

So, by limiting my supplies and letting these gorgeous

premade embellishments take centre stage, I was able to get

these nine cards made in less than an hour,

which made me pretty happy!

 

  

Thanks for looking!
