Happy Retirement to Librarians

 Happy retirement to librarians!!

For some reason, I remembered making word clouds when I was working.  So, I thought I would create a retirement card for librarians.  Cute and fun to make.

 
 

Maybe I'll make more since our roads and sidewalks are pure ice right now!

 

Have a great day!

Best Wishes

Best Wishes in black, gold and white.  The other night I could not sleep and my mind wandered all over.  At some point, I thought about a card I had seen on Pinterest and eventually came up with the idea for this card and the Festive Friday Challenge #0042 and CAS on Friday #163.

The Festive Friday Challenge required the use of three elements from their list of ten.   I chose black, gold and a pearl.

The CAS Friday Challenge required a die cut word -- best wishes.

I like this card cause it could be used for a birthday, new job, retirement or even a wedding or anniversary and would be great for a man!




Have a great week!!

Happy Retirement & Book Lover

Another retirement card.  This time I used a background of bookshelves loaded with books and a globe and I edged the background card stock with gold ink.






Simple and quick to create.

Have a great weekend!

Happy Retirement

Here is an easy card to make -- Happy Retirement.  The die is from The Stamps of Life (I seem to be buying lots of their dies lately).

Retirement is such a happy time - at least it was for me!  I decided on bright cheery card stock and gold sequins.



Have a great day!

Celebrate

What a cute little die!  Celebrate.  I've used this die many times for birthday and retirement cards. 

This celebration card is for The Library Challenge to use stripes.  I inked the raised rays from an embossing folder for a stripe effect.  The sun is shining brightly today so this cheerful celebration card came to mind.

Happy Retirement

Well, this card is different.  I saw the fish paper in my collection and thought of a retired person fishing and drinking coffee.  Perfect!

 This will be card #7 for the 2019 Spring Summer Coffee Lovers Blog.







Well, that second picture really stinks.  What happened?  The colors are good and the blues in the fish are good, but blurry.   Obviously, I need help with photos!






Tomorrow is Friday.  Have a great weekend.
