Recently I was asked to make a box to fit Tic Tac Gum and Tic Tac Mints. I like the challenge of figuring out new box sizes! I was also happy to see the Daisy Punch will be continuing in the new catalog. Do you have it yet?

It’s time for another Festive Friday Challenge! I love being a designer for Festive Friday and this week’s challenge #FF0032 is Mother’s Day (May 12) and/or Pink. #festivefridaychallenge I hope you’ll make a card, scrapbook page or 3-D item and join us.

Dad’s 80th Birthday!

Festive Friday Challenge

It’s time for another Festive Friday Challenge! I love being a designer for Festive Friday and this week’s challenge #FF0028 is Mardi Gras (Mar 5) and/or Glimmer Paper. #festivefridaychallenge I hope you’ll make a card or 3-D item and join us. If you need help figuring out how to enter, please email me at Beth@StampingMom.com and I’d love to help you.

My Dad will be 80 on Monday February 25! I thought using the crazy colors of Mardi Gras and Glimmer Paper would make an extra special birthday card to show my Dad how much we love him! Don’t tell him, but I made a card to fit in a business size (4″ x 9-1/2″ ) envelope so I could put all the gift cards we got him to his favorite area restaurants. 🙂

At the top of this post you can leave me a comment. I love hearing from you!

My Dad helps me with my therapy dogs. We visit Memory Care and Assisted Living. He always works with Maya, our older pup. He doesn’t usually wear an elf suit.

Dad had on the elf suit because right after we got done with Pet Therapy, he was one of Santa’s elves for the Christmas party. Yep, my Dad is an awesome Dad, Grandpa, Pet Therapy visitor and a darn good elf! Happy 80th Birthday Dad!! Mom, your three girls, three son-in-laws and nine grandkids love you very much!

Blessings,

Beth 🙂

Tips- Adhere the sequins according to the rule of odds. The “rule of odds” suggests that an odd number of subjects in an image is more interesting than an even number. Thus the suggestion is to choose an arrangement with at least three subjects, hence we have three sequins. A triangular format creates a sense of stability and strength, therefore the sequins are placed in a triangular formation. Who knew you could put so much thought into where to place the sequins and how many should be used? What happens when one sequin falls off in the mail? Both rules are violated as we are left with two sequins in a line and the card automatically self-destructs! 🙂 If I send you a card and one sequin has fallen off, look for it in the envelope and reapply with a glue dot. 🙂

Another Tip- Always use Momento ink with Stampin’ Blends. Always us Stazon ink when watercoloring.

Did you notice anything wrong with the picture above? Me neither. I showed both Stampin’ Write markers and Stampin’ Blends because I thought both were used in the coloring of the cakes. Silly me! Why is it I don’t know what was used to color the cakes? I guess I should admit that I didn’t color them. Abby corrected me when she saw the picture and would like you to know that all the cakes were colored with only Stampin’ Blends. 🙂

Thanks Abby for coloring at least 15 cakes for me! I’m going to miss you so much when you go back to college this weekend and not just because you emptied the dishwasher every day for a month, wrapped all the Christmas presents and helped me with lots of things way more than your brothers! Love you Abby Dazzle! 🙂
