Birthday Cards

This day has felt sooooooooo long! The dog does not realize it's the weekend so at 5:48 am she's in my face telling me she has to go do her business! LOL! I couldn't fall back to sleep so I got up, made my coffee, read the paper and emails. Chloe didn't get up until after 8 am. Brian is away all week so it's just the two of us...well three counting Snickers...lol
I worked on a couple of Christmas gifts earlier but can't show them on here right now as my friends will see ;)
The cards below are a few that I made for the school. They've asked me to make 30 birthday cards for the teachers. I've kept them fairly simple. I am about half way there....it's taking longer than I thought it would!
Chloe seems to be doing better. Her heart episodes seem to be happening a lot less often. Think she had one yesterday and one today. That's a lot better than the 5 or 6 times a day earlier this week. Will be waiting for that specialist to call though! Thanks to everyone for their well wishes, thoughts and prayers!

Dawn you've been a busy bee. The cards are adorable. So glad to hear Chloe is doing better. Can't wait to see what projects you've been working. Thanks for all the inspiration. I gave my sister-in-law one of the totes for Christmas today and she was so happy with it. Loved the tote to use for another gift once she used her notecards. Thanks so much for the template. I going to make a few for Birthday gifts.

Dawn, all the cards look great! I think 30 cards takes a lot of time when you're making them all different. I'm sure they will appreciate them though. Glad to hear Chloe is doing better! ;)

You are doing so well with these cards, you have been busy! They are all fabulous and all so different!
My DH was away all last week, I find I am more organised when he is away and find more time for cardmaking but it is tough when it is a full week! Hope your week passes quickly but you get lots done!

These are all great.Im sure they will be well loved-and hopefully used!
Alot of people think they are too pretty to use sometimes-funny huh?
You must go into panic mode when she had an episode.
I'm waiting to hear what happens.
Still praying for you

wow, you've been busy! Did you stamp all those in one day? I think I must be a slow stamper and I just realized that...hee hee
Hope you hear good news from the specialist!! A few years ago Chase had a EEG ..or is it EKG, I get so confused...anyway they called us and said his heart was enlarged, but they could't get us in for over a month, so we walked on egg shells waiting for the visit and then we get to the specialist and they said his heart was fine, it looked enlarged on the previous test because he is so skinny and has zero muscle and zero fat. We prayed for nothing to be wrong and God answered our prayers! I pray you get the same results!!

I'm so glad to hear that Chloe is doing a bit better. Still praying for you! ;)
