Gift Card Holder

Here is a card I made for a gift card.

The insturctions for making this card can be found on this website: http://stampwithdiane.blogspot.com/2008/05/gif-card-holder-tutorial.html

I used different color paper and the "She's All That" SU Stamp Set. I used Certainly Celery, Barely Banana, and Regal Rose for my colors.

White Dawn Rose Bush - Happy Memorial Day!

Here are some pictures of my White Dawn Rose Bush that I got in memory of my mom when she passed away in 2006. She was very fond of White flowers and said you should always have white flowers planted among your other colors. Her name was Dawn so this rose is in memory of her. I never had an interest in gardening but she loved it and turned my sister Karen into a gardener (after she told her that gardening was like decorating except you move or place plants around instead of furniture. My brother-in-law Brian now gets to relocate plants whenever my sister decides to rearrange the "furniture" (plants). Mom enjoyed Brian "thanking Mom for telling Karen that"! My "God Mother" Laurene, Mom's best friend told me that I could keep this plant alive and she would help me, which she has. I bet Mom is smiling down enjoying the fact that I actually enjoy some of this gardening - especially watching her rose grow each year.

Happy Memorial Day - Mom, we are thinking of you (as always)...enjoy!

It is hard to see the pop up but you can watch Dawn's video on how to make this card if you can't come to class on June 9th. I am also going to use this same design and have the pop up say "I hope your sail into retirement is as great as you are" by using the computer to type it out. I have a special person retiring on May 30th and want to make her a fun card...If it turns out the way I hope I will post it later.
