Two former co-workers are retiring, former because I retired last October! Here are the
cards I made for them:
The flower card uses MFT Stitched blooms (all cut our of scraps of
Stampin Up cardstock) , the second card uses Stampin Up High Tide and
Taylored Expressions Adirondike Chair die. Both use Happy Retirement
from Taylored Expressions Day in Paradise. Looking forward
to celebrating with them!
A few fun challenges:
Card 1:
Cut it Up #273-flowers and retirement make me happy 3/23
Card 2:
Just Add Ink #643 -Blending and white 3/15

Both cards are so peaceful and relaxing - just what retirement SHOULD be! Love the water scene looking through the window on the 2nd, so much fun!
ReplyDeleteTwo perfect retirement cards for your ex co-workers.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing the first one at the SNIPPETS PLAYGROUND. Come up to the Treehouse where we are serving cakes and hot chocolate to keep warm! xxx
Two fabulous cards - obviously I should prefer the snippets one - but they are both equal to me. I do love the use of strong colours as well.

ReplyDeleteReally gorgeous set of retirement cards! Love the happy colors on the top card and the beautiful tranquil scene on the second one!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous cards Donna! I love the little scene that you've created for a relaxing time at the beach. That's exactly where I would want to be when I retire! Your blending is fantastic and I love the pops of colour against the white. Thanks for playing along this week at Just Add Ink. Rochelle xo
