Snow day!!!!

I hate having more snow but I sure do like a paid play day!! It's so pretty coming down but it sure creates a mess.

I pulled together a bunch of cards for someone at work who wants to buy a bunch. So that meant putting sentiments on the inside and stamping the backs with my personalized stamp. I seriously can't wait to get rid of a bunch. Am I the only one who has a huge stash of cards? I sent 40 to my SIL for her shop and I have another two bins jam packed. I send out a lot of cards too. So I guess that means I make too many?!!

I needed a few more sympathy. You never have enough of those. Used SU Rose Red, Old Olive, Regal Rose combo which is one of my favorites. The dp is SU also. I'm not sure what set this is. It could be double sided stems or something like that. I traded the set and stamped a bunch before I shipped it. I embossed this one. The flower middles are shimmerzed but you can't see that. The sentiment is a Mike's $1 stamp and I used my rectangle nesties. As always, the colors are a bit off in the photo. The brads actually match in person. Thanks for looking!

I love snow days unless we end up giving up a vacation, we are getting close I'm afraid! What a beautiful card. The color combination is so pretty together.I never think to emboss and I know what you mean about the shimmerz, it only shows in real life. I feel like my cards are starting to pile up. I am sure I could take them to school and sell them, just to lazy to try I guess!

I have to be honest-I MISS snow days! Doesn't happen out here! Enjoy some for me!

The sympathy card is lovely and it is always good to have a variety of sentiments on hand.

I don't get snow days but I still like the fact that I don't ever have to drive in it if I don't want to!

I love this card. Great color combo and layout!

Snow day sounds ok, but the paid day off sounds much better! Glad you had the day off and some time to do things for yourself. I still cannot believe that you have that many cards just "sitting around"!! That's so amazing, and I know they are all wonderful. The one you included here is really pretty. And how wonderful that your work buddy wants a bunch, very cool!
