Happy Birthday Dad!

I made this card for my dad's birthday, November 10th.  I have been so far behind on my crafting that I am trying to get way ahead.  I have a TON of xmas cards & crafts to start!

A Phillies Birthday Card

My husband's birthday was yesterday, and this was the card I made for him. He is a huge Phillies fan, plus he loved the Phillies thank you card that I made last week. (And I gave him a Phillies jersey for his birthday - #26 Chase Utley for my husband's 26th birthday. Seems appropriate, right?)

I used nestabilities, Stampin' Up ticket punch, ribbon from my stash, and paper by Madame Elisabeth.

A Phillies Thank You Card

Hey All,

It's been a while since I made a card. October is full of birthdays, anniversaries, and other fun times. So I will be crafting a lot. As a matter of fact, today is my 2nd Anniversary!

Last weekend, my husband, my brother in law, and my mother in law went to the Phillies game. My MIL is a housekeeper for part owners of the Phillies and they gave us the tickets. We were in the 5th row right behind the dugout - AWESOME seats! So this is a thank you card for them.

I used Phillies logos downloaded and printed out, Nesties circles, Studio G stamp, Michael's $1 ribbon, and baseball paper by Madame Elizabeth ($1 for an 8 pack of different coordinating sheets).

Here's the challenges:
1. Pile it On - Aly's Sketch & multiple challenges
2. Aly's Sunday Challenge - sketch
3. Crazy for Challenges - thankful
4. Caardvarks - ribbon
