Here is a birthday card which I made for a girlfriend this summer.

It is always fun to make a special card for a creative friend. They seem to really appreciate all the little details and finer brush stokes. 😀

As I looked at the finished card from above, I considered putting a little vase with a rose in the middle of the card. (But then I decided it might be a little overkill :-D)

I love this type of card with all of the possibilities!

I have just recieved a box filled with the new Stampin‘ Up Autumn-Winter catalogues :-D, beautiful design paper, new punches, embellishments and holiday stamp sets… all very exciting, but I am not ready for snowmen and pine cones just yet!!! I am still enjoying the sunny weather, blooming flowers and sandy beach feelings. I am sure that the fall feeling will come as soon as I unpack the box and get my hands on the new stash. Until then, I will be soaking up the last days of summer!
