Birthday Wishes

Birthday cards are always nice to get and it's even better when there's a little gift on the inside.  I'm not a big fan of my birthday.  Getting older has been a really hard thing for me.  I have decided in the New Year that I'm not going to worry anymore about my age or the wrinkles I have.  I want to praise God more and thank him everyday for giving me another day of life.  

This card I made for my daughters boyfriend.  His birthday is coming up in the next few days.  It's always nice to give a little something to brighten someones day. 

 I have grown fond of the young fella.  I personally think he and my daughter make a lovely couple if I do say so myself.

Paper: Blue (Stampin' Up) not sure of the name, White (Pat Catan's)

Lawn Fawn Gift Card Holder

I love Lawn Fawn. I think they have some of the cutest stamps and dies.  When I first saw this die, I knew I had to get it.  When you have older children who are hard to buy for, gift cards are the best gift to give.  If you haven't checked out Nichol Spohr on YouTube, you should really check her channel out.  She is a very talented lady. She is were I got this idea for this gift card I made for my daughter.

Dies: Winter Woodland Critters Huggers (Lawn Fawn), Winter Woodland Critters Addons (Lawn Fawn), Stitched Gift Card Pocket (Lawn Fawn)

Cardstock: Bubblegum (FSJ), White (Papertrey Ink), Black Licorice (FSJ), Hazelnut Blend (FSJ)

I'm Back After a Little Hiatus!!! 

I can't believe I haven't posted since November 16th and here it is almost the end of December.  It has been a little crazy here at the Collier household getting ready for Thanksgiving and Christmas.  I feel like the holidays really came and gone so fast this year.  I was a little disappointed because Christmas is my favorite holiday.  I just love the decorating and all the lights.  Just makes our home so much more cozy.

Here are a few pics of my decorating.

I have done a little paper crafting during the holidays but not much.  Look for those posts in a few days.  

Until next time, have a blessed day!!
