August Britday Card Club

Hi Friends,

Three of my friends from our birthday card club enjoyed birthdays in August.     First up is Susie Martin's or (aka scrapsmart) card which is featured above.  I used the Botanical Tea collection from Graphic 45 to create this pretty little card.  I layered the pretty rose card, gave it a peak a boo curl with some tucked in lace and pearls, and ruffled some lace around the pink flower.  Distressed the edges, popped up the card, and added a few embossed leafs for a finishing touch.  For the inside, I dd a little fussy cutting and punching here's what you get:

 

Then below is Heather's pretty pink flower and heart card.  Kathy taught these cards at our card class and I loved them!  So sweet, I knew my friends would love them too.  Which they did.

 

 Then this pretty soft purple lattice work card when to my pal Sandra.  I love the softness of this pretty card.  And it has the added surprise of a card within a card for your sentiment. 

Well friends that's it for my August Birthday Club.  Hope you have a wonderful day and may I wish you all a happy day!

Frienship Canvses from Susie

Sometime ago I posted a Mad Hatter Printer Tray I created for my friend Susie (aka scrapsmart) at scrapbook.com for a friendship swap we did earlier this summer.  I received these earlier this summer, but between vacation and other commitments,  I'm FINELY getting a chance to share the beautiful canvases she created for me.  I just love and adore them!  I absolutely love soft feminine styles, like shabby and vintage and aqua is my favorite color palette so Susie totally knocked this one out of the park!   Here's a couple more close ups that I hope you enjoy:

Well friends that's it for me today.

Thank you so much for these lovely gifts Susie, I'll cherish them for many, many, many years to come!   I am sorry for taking so long getting them up to share but believe me when I say your friendship brightens my day and warms my heart today and everyday!   Thank you for all your support, inspiration, kindness and encouragement.   I'm so glad you happened to me!   Big hugs and lots of love!  ~ Your Friend Always ~ Dawna
