As these events have already happened I feel it is safe to post these cards. Close to the beginning of the month I made some great birthday cards for some of my family. For my sister Carol, I made a block tower card where I placed various pictures of her family and stamped a sentiment using Stampin' Up's approaching perfection stamp set and gorgeous grape ink.

For my other sister Marlene, I made a spinning tower card. I bordered punched butterflies along each side of the tower and then glued punched butterflies in various colours over top of them. I also stamped a sentiment using the approaching perfection stamp set in memento black ink, and cut out the word HAPPY in different coloured card stock using the playful alphabet dies.

Lastly for my brother-in-law David, I also used Stampin' Up's approaching perfection stamp set but stamped the sentiment in night of navy ink.

Such fun!

Hello everyone a quick update on how things are going. Family health issues are at a stand still right now so I am able to reconnect with my crafting family. I want to say thank you for all your prayers and good wishes that have been coming, they have indeed helped. Just to let you know that a couple of small changes have and will be made to the group's facebook page and blog. First off the name for both the facebook page and blog has now been changed to CLMCrafts and CLMCrafts.blogspot.com and soon the page and profile images. The email address for the page however has not been changed.  

Stayed tuned to see the birthday cards I made earlier this month!
