Happy 50th Jackie...

For my cycling buddy and good friend, Jackie for her 50th birthday.

 I found inspiration for my card from a couple of cards I saw on pinterest.  I wanted to keep the card CAS and highlight the 50.  I used my very neglected cricut to make the 50.  Then used My Favorite Things Traditional Tags Stax Die-namics.  I ran a pice of Melon Mambo through a paper crimper and mounted the tag on top of the base card that was run through a cuddlebug embossing folder.  Topped it with a button and some ribbon.

 Jackie and I at Madera Canyon for our first time.

You're a Super Star...

For my Super Star, Erma...such a great cycling buddy, teammate, and amazing friend.  My day is always brighter when she's around, love you my dear friend!

I used the MFT You're Super Stamp Set and Die-namics and the Stary Sky Stencil.  My first time using both.  Colored the girl with copics and highlighted spots with a Clear Star gel pen.

8 Second Ride...

For my sweet dear friend Shirey for her birthday!  I'm so blessed to have Shirey as a cycling buddy and friend.  There is never a dull (or quite) moment when she's around...laughter is an absolute!

I used My Mind's Eye On the Sunny Side, Very Vanilla and Daffodil Delight.  My Favorite Things Beautiful Bows Die-namics and Michael's $1 stamp for the sentiment.

Birthday Jam...

For my besties step dad for his birthday.  He loves playing the guitar.

I used Bermuda Bay for my base and Cherry Cobbler ran through a paper crimper.  My Mind's Eye Good Day Sunshine Paper.  Spell binders die with Pear Pizzaz edges.  Sentiment from My Favorite Things Sweet Succulent stamp set.

Thank you so much for stopping by.

Happy Birthday Alan...

I made this for my teammate Alan.  For his birthday he wanted to cycle up Mt. Lemmon.  We did it on a day that was also a supported ride sponsored by GABA.  It  was in May, great weather at the base but the weather turned as we were climbing.  Alan didn't have a base layer or gloves or anything to block the wind and keep him warm on our descend down the mountain.  Luckily GABA had newspapers to put in our jerserys "just in case".   

I tried to get close to our team colors.  I used Lucky Limeade and Brilliant Blue.  The Bicycle is from Hero Arts and the sentiment from MFT Little Loveosaurus.  The printed paper is from S.E.I. Black Orchid paper pad.  I used SC749 for my layout.

 Carolyn, Me, and Alan.
