We’ll be driving home today from my brother’s. I’ll be anxious to see what kind of progress has been made on the kitchen while we’ve been away. I nearly finished editing photos from our walks here, but Tracy and I decided to get our Alaska photo book finished while we were here and that took care of yesterday. Whew! Those photos are finally edited, and the book is ordered. I think I’m going to like it a lot, and although it took us the better part of a day working together on it, it is considerably faster than scrapping all those photos. I’ll still be doing some scrapbook pages, but I’m excited to have something to share much more quickly.
Before we left I needed a couple of birthday cards. The first one is a “lift” of one I saw on the Papercraft site (not the blog). The very day I saw it, my Studio Calico kit arrived with the perfect stamp.
The inside sentiment was generated on the computer and says “I missed your birthday!”
This was another super simple card that I made with a tag that was laying on my desk for another project and didn’t get used. I changed the ribbon and stamped a sentiment and it was done!
Supplies:
Oh, Snap:
Cardstock: Select White, True Black, & Hawaiian Shores (PTI)

Ribbon from stash
Both gorgeous! Loving the camera stamp 🙂
cute cards! I hope you’ll be sharing some of your Alaska book here?
I like the simple cards. We’ve made photo books for our last two big road trips and I love having a record of the whole trip in one place. I’m still scrapping some of the stories. I have several that wold make great 2-page layouts, so maybe I’ll get those done during the Double Take workshop.
Love the “clean and simple” look of the first. I’m really beginning to think about the photo book idea myself.

Aha! I think I know where that tag came from. That’s from your “slicing” isn’t it? Lovely!
I’m looking forward to seeing some finished kitchen projects too
Loving these simple cards…..wish I could do simple!!
You always find a way to create such beautiful CAS cards! Love the “oh snap” card idea and the colors/tag on the 2nd one.
Terrific cards!
