Happppppy!!!!!

           Happy....
I guess that can describe me....most of the time!!!

I'm uber HAPPY today.  It's MY birthday!!!!
I'm 53 yrs old today!!!
Yep, not hiding my age at all, I love every year that 
I'm 6 feet above ground. I still have too much living to do. 
Too much to experience, too much to acccomplish.
Too much of everything!!!!!!!
Bwahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!

Especially my crafting!!!

Take a gander at this beauty!!!! 

This is the inspiration of this card.

My hubs ordered me some Jerusalem artichokes (aka Sunchokes) to plant. 
This is what the plants look like...they can get up to 10 feet tall.

This is the tuber or root that you harvest after the flower has died out in the fall. 

I have been wanting them for a while now. 
It's a type of sunflower that you can harvest the root and prepare it somewhat like a potato. 
My mama always peeled them and pickled them.  They stay really crispy and us kids would eat 
almost a jar at a time.  They were so yummy.

Hubs and I will be planting them today around our well.  YAY!!!!

Here are the deets of my card:

Retro Fresh punchin'

                  
A little tidbit about myself....
I LOVE punches and love coming up
with different ways to use them.

Its just something about inserting that paper and in a snap
it transformed into something beautiful.....or at least 
on its way to being beautified!!!!
                         

This one was super easy to create with graduating sizes of circle punches, banner punch and 
some left over DSP called Retro Fresh from Stampin' Up!!!!
Sentiment is from Happy Watercolors stamp set and inked with Chocolate Chip Ink.

Circle punches:
1-3/4"
1-1/2"
1-1/4"
1"
3/4"

Punch two pieces with the Banner punch to create the end flaps. 
I fussy cut a strip the same width as the banner punch....(around 5/8")

Added some dimensionals behind the sentiment piece and the largest circle.
Also added a small strip of some of the DSP along the right side.

Love you bunches and bunches

My hubs says this to me often.

"Love you bunches and bunches!!!!"

So I had to create a card with bunches and bunches of hearts!!!!



I used the Banner Blast stamp set and the new Banner punch.....Love love love them.

I stamped the small heart from the stamp set many many many time from the bottom up with 
Basic Gray Ink on the piece of 
Whisper white card stock to create the background. 
I then stamped the red using Real red (the same color as the card base and banners).
I stamped the banner with Basic gray ink and then punched them out.
Adhered them in a swag shape and the middle one is on a dimensional.
Basic gray marker was used to create the lines of the banner. 
I have been loving embossing lately so I clear embossed some of the small hearts intermingled within the gray hearts.

Until later, "heart"-y bunch.....Gotta split......TFL!!!!!
