Celebrate My Team

Team Cards
This past week I've been busy making cards for my team members to celebrate the wonderful things they did during Sale-a-Bration. 

Birthday Blast
I combined the Star Blast Framelit with the Celebrations Duo embossing folder and added the Confetti embossing folder for the background.

Card Tips:
* Card Base — Watermelon Wonder — 5 1/2" x 8 1/2"
* Silver Foil Sheet — 4" x 5 1/4"
* Whisper White — 3 7/8" x 5 1/8"
emboss with Confetti embossing folder
* Watermelon Wonder — 3 1/2" x 5"
cut out with the Star Blast framelit — put point of top star at top of cardstock
then I trimmed off bottom edge — the sold portion is 1 1/4"
* Silver Foil Sheet — 1 1/8" x 4 7/8"
emboss with Celebrations Duo embossing folder
(it is actually debossed — the letters go down instead of raise up)
Birthday Blast Close Up
Congrats to all of my team for being you!!

Birthday Blast for Peggy

Yesterday was my 13th Anniversary as a Stampin' Up Demonstrator
and my birthday.  How cool is it that both are on the same day!!!
It was a fabulous day and I want to Thank everyone who shared in my day — you are all awesome and I loved everything except my age.  I definitely don't feel as old as I am — where does the time go!!!

This is one of the card we did at my Stamp & Go Class this month and I thought it was perfect sentiment for all of us — birthday or not we should definitely Celebrate ourselves.
