Birthday card bundle
































I'm a brand-new me. LOL I dropped my demoship and signed under a new upline. Hi, Max! Convention was so inspiring that I came home ready to turn my hobby into a business. I've already spoken to my mom about signing up now that Stampin' Up! has entered the hispanic market, and today I took another step. Yay me! LOL

I was chatting with my daughter's teacher this morning, and she mentioned that she was in charge of the social dues again this year. She collects money from all the other teachers to use for birthdays, showers, etc.. I decided it was now or never and told her to let me know when she needed a card for anything, and I would make it for her. Guess what!? She ordered 4 cards on the spot! She wanted birthday cards for her fellow 5th grade teachers. WooHoo! I can't wait to give them to her tomorrow morning! I hope she loves them! I am hoping that this will be my way in with the teachers and staff! Cross your fingers for me!

Three of the four are variations on cards I have made previously. The 4th is a CASE of one I saw in Spencer's class on Technology Tools. (It's on page 34 or so of the Convention Resources file.) I am thinking that it would be terrific as a set in different colors with different sentiments. What do you think?

Elizabeth, they are beautiful cards. If she does not like them, you just let me know and I will come bonk her on her head. LOL

Fantastic cards! I really like that the 3rd one (Enjoy) can be masculine, which is always a challenge for me.
