A quickie post today.
OH! Dear me, another rushed panic card. I had completely forgotten my Great, Great Nieces birthday, she will be 4 this week. My old 'puter calendar reminded me 10 days in advance and was literally on my screen. I'm not impressed with my Google one, maybe because the quality of my old one, which wasn't suitable for Windows 11. Due to the state of the postal service at the moment, I had to get it into the post today.
The first thing I think of when in a rush is my Cameo, and that what is what I used today. Colourful paper and an embossing folder. I added a gold overlay on the cake topper and star loops, and it was done. Although I also printed out an insert, I forgot to photograph in the rush. I just hope she gets it before her birthday and she likes it.
This is just darling for a 4 yr old! Love all the stripes and dots!
ReplyDeleteI think you nailed it. It looks fab, she will love it. great embossed background too xx
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colourful card -all this technology causes stress instead of the making things easier!

She'll like it for sure - in fact, she'll love it and especially since it's personalized! So cute and fun and I love that polka dot paper too.

This is a great "rushed", colorful birthday card Faith! Love the embossing on the pattern paper. The age and name is always a hit with the little ones. I think you did a great job getting this card made fast and in the mail! Hugs, Brenda
ReplyDeleteI don't know what is up with Blogger, but I'm getting tired of it "being broken" when I go to post my comment! Grrrrrr! So here I go again and apologize if you get duplicates from me. I love this card, it is a fun and happy card for a child. The colorfulness, the patterns and embossing all so fun. Little fingers can run across and feel the embossing, which kids just love. They also love to see their name on a card. You did a great job getting this card "rushed" to make and mailed out. I think she will love it! Hugs, Brenda
ReplyDeleteLovely and colourful to appeal to a little one Faith, she will love all the elements.

So colourful and bright with the gold embellishments, bet she will love it. I use Google calendar and have it set to send me reminders a week in advance to help my poor old memory 😀xx
ReplyDeleteLovely bright and colourful card Faith, I’m sure your great great niece will love it!

Whats not to like Faith, she's four, she will love it because its gorgeous and has come from you....
ReplyDeleteMust agree with Carol, techno can cause more stress than anything, why can't they make things simple..xxx
Nice and colorful and shiny, what 4 year old can resist that? I was relieving your panic as I read what you wrote. I hate that feeling, hope you are all calmed down again now! Is the UK post still striking? So I read are NHS workers? I'm reading upsetting news from over there, hope it's all not true. But then you probably read upsetting news about us, too. I think I now truly know the meaning of wanting to live in the past, lol sigh! XOX
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun card, Faith! Doesn't look like any rushing was going on at all! I'm sure she'll love it! :o)
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to your great-great nice! Lovely card!
ReplyDeleteHi Faith, I'm sure Layla will love this bright and colourful card, it's beautiful, Kate x
ReplyDeleteAwww...what a sweet birthday card for your great niece! Love the polka dot number 4, embossed background, and touches of gold! I'm sure she will love the beautiful birthday card!
ReplyDeleteShe'll love it! Dots and stripes and a cupcake!
ReplyDeleteTerrific card for a 4th birthday. I wish my cameo was out all the time so I could do quick cards but alas I have to drag it out and plug it in because when I pull it out the plug always comes out and I have to crawl under the table to pull the plug back up. Someday I will find a way to keep it from getting unplugged. LOL!
ReplyDeleteRushed or not Faith, this is a fabulous card - I love all of the bright colours.

It might have been done it a rush, but it looks fantastic to me and perfect for a 4 year old!
ReplyDeleteLove that big 4 & the gold! Bet she loved it!
ReplyDeleteI’m sure she loved your card! The Cameo makes things so easy doesn’t it? I don’t use mine often enough though.
