This card uses the very popular Hearth and Home Thinlits Dies which gives us a cozy view from a window at the hills and lake beyond. It also continues my theme of digging into my stash of Designer series paper, this time the Love Blossoms DSP Paper stack which I used a lot for my valentine projects but works very well for this card.

Happy Leap Year Day…………..
Happy Leap Year Day ~ We don’t get the chance to say that very often! I know a couple of people born on February 29th – it is nice to be able to wish them a happy birthday on the actual day.
I shared a card the other day using the ‘What I Love’ exclusive Sale-a-bration stamp set. That card used lovely subtle shades – the card I have to share to day uses the big bold Melon Mambo and Tuxedo Black!!!

Sky is the Limit ~ from Stampin’ Up!
I made this card for my youngest Step-son’s birthday last month, he is all grown up with a wife and babies of his own. Cards for the guys in our lives do not come to me naturally but with this stamp set ‘ Sky is the Limit’ it certainly made it easier to make.
This is one of the exclusive Sale-a-bration stamp sets, which is available until February 15th, more details on how you can get your hands on this one is at the bottom of the post!
Sunburst Sayings ‘ Thank you’ ~ Stampin’ Up!
I am not a great fan of January – after the glitter and shine of the holiday season with Thanksgiving and Christmas the house always looks so quiet and plain. So today’s card uses lovely oranges and yellows and a pop of glimmer paper.
…….. because you are so nice ~ from Stampin’ Up!
This is an unusual card in as much as most of the decoration is on a piece of vellum attached to the front… and it is no ordinary vellum it has a tone-on-tone printing and is another of the exclusive products available for free as part of Sale-a-bration

Its my Party Cupcake and Balloons ~ from Stampin’ Up!
So far I have shared 4 cards using the ever versatile Party Wishes stamp set, this is the last one for the time being but I just wanted to used the itty bitty cupcake and balloon punches one more time before I move on to some of the other products in the new Occasions catalog from Stampin’ Up!
Bermuda Bay Birthday ~ from Stampin’ Up!
Black, White and Bermuda Bay – a lovely combination for this birthday card. Black is not a color I naturally reach for but it does give a certain elegance to most things ~ I think this would have been a very elegant card…….. until I added the stamped balloons to make it a little more whimsical!
