Here is another multi open card invite .. this time its for a baby announcement .. sorry I do not have the measurements handy right at this moment ( to early I suppose ) But it is very similar to my BBQ CARD I did a few days ago with just an extra panel to open & with 1 slight change the back base card is the size of a post card NOT a full size card like the BBQ one . As you can tell by the following photos .. Once I get the measurements I will come back and make a addition to this post .. Okey Dokey ..
MEASUREMENTS: starting from back of card and moving forward :
Rose red ~ 4 1/4 X 5 1/2 ( post card size )
Sage shadow ~ 4" X 5 1/4
Going Gray 3 1/2 ( score @1/4) X 3 3/4
Rose red 3 3/4 ( score @1/4 ") X 3 1/4
the scored sides are where you will apply your sticky strip and wrap behind sage shadow layer
Here is what the 1st panel looks like when opened and
then with the final panel opened to reveal the announcement of the little bundle of Joy I used Sage shadow and rose red & Going Gray for the colored CS with also whisper white .Sticky strip was used to hold the beads on the front panel of the card . and Narrow organdy white ribbon along with silver cord.. such a fun card to make ..
About 3 weeks ago I had sent hubby his lap top computer to him with a LOT of other goodies snacks, flip flops , blanket , a bunch of new light colored shirts from Steve and Barry's anyway I had also put in there those 12 I LOVE MY HONEY SHADOW BOX CARDS with 12 envelopes and well he finally got his package this past Saturday YAHOO!
I was really worried about sending the computer and not only that, But the package weighted in at 36 lbs ( Holy Cow HUH? ) anywho .. As soon as he got the package & my 12 cards I sent him he started handling the cards out .. Everyone looked really weird at him and was waiting for the catch .. Like > What he wanted in return for the card and Rich told them It was FREE and there was NO catch .. Rich went on to tell me that all of guys over there do things for someone in return for something ..( is this not how the world Thinks even in the USA .. ya know Nothing is for FREE right? EXCEPT FOR the cards for the troops !! )
well he had all 12 cards gone in a FEW MINUTES his Foreman/ Operation Glitter Drop Manager ( Hee! Hee! ) told Rich that the card was the coolest thing he had ever seen in his whole life .. YAHOO! So needless to say Rich is sooo excited to get all the cards you have sent for him to hand out to everyone for FREE.. Making him of course the most wanted man over there all thanks to YOU!! WOW what a testimony he will be to everyone over there HUH? .. I am sure we will be hearing tons of stories from over there once he gets the cards and starts handing them out .. I am sooo excited Not only for my Hubby to be able to pass all your beautiful cards out , But also for our troops and all their family members to receive such a awesome card in the mail from thier loved ones over in Iraq .. All because of YOU Stampin Angels !
Have a Fabulous Monday everyone and I will catch you all tomorrow.
May 2nd is only 2 days away YAHOO!
Until later .. Happy Stampin!!























cause I had my dads CB radio hooked up .. I do remember that a Trucker helped me find the right exit I passed at 2:00am he told me the exact exit to take just by me telling him the mile marker I was at .. .. thinking back now This was pretty STUPID on my part HUH ( lots of crazies back then too KWIM? ) OH so young and just plain STUPID!! HUH ? No wonder my mom was a wreck with me going by myself .. wont do that today thats for sure ... and just for the record neither will Jessie

I have been seeing lately a few cards That used the glorious gift stamp set from the Spring mini where they make the flower into a daffodil so I had to try it for one of the cards for my Stamp-a-stack event that is approaching.. Just by layering the small flower on top of the larger flower in this set look at what you get .. Pretty cute huh? I also used the word Celebrate from my "Fancy flexible phrases stamp set from the Winter mini.. I actually had alot of fun designing some cards for my upcoming
) .. I love all my tulips which usually blossom by Easter .. I will have to wait and see what happens this year ..
