Obi-Wan for me!

Hellllooooooo there!!!
Yes, I'm alive & well....I changed jobs earlier this year (I work nights in the NICU now!) and just now getting my bearings again!!
I've got several events I need to stamp cards for....but TODAY, May 13th is my wedding anniversary, so I really had to make a Star Wars themed card for hubby.
I wish I could remember where I got this idea of the R2-D2 card so I could I give credit...because this is a total CASE! But ERMAGERSHHHHHH how cute is he!!! And that phrase!! I used Stampin' Up's new all clear photo polymer stamp set Designer Typeset for the sentiment. I used SU's Clear Mount Perfectly Placed Guides to help line up my letters.

So...Happy Anniversary honey!!
Love,
Me

Merry Belated Christmas!

I'm giggling at my post title....never think of a belated Christmas....even though my last two Christmas cards have gone out after Christmas.
I've mentioned I put the PRO in procrastination, right? Haha
Here was this year's card....with a retired stamp set I will never part with-Christ is Born.
I stamped the poinsettias in SU Perfect Plum on Crumb Cake cardstock, and embossed the sentiment with gold embossing powder. I love this set!

So....Merry Belated Christmas!!

I don't "do" resolutions....but my 2013 with be full of crafting that I plan to share more of!
