Birthday: Balloons on Watercolored Background

I used eight different greens and browns for the watercolored background.  Always Artichoke, Early Espresso, Very Vanilla, and gold glitter paper were used.  

Father's Day: You're Toadally Awesome!

I love the set You're Sublime.  I also like puns!  I made three of these cards, one for each of my children.  All three of my children have become wonderful parents.  I am the luckiest!

Thank You: Celebrate Today

Patrick's sixth grade teacher, Mr. Slavish, was the most inspirational teacher ever.  He motivated Patrick and allowed him to love school and learning again.  His previous teacher had taken that away from Patrick.  Patrick made this card (with a bit of guidance from me) by himself.
