I needed a couple of quick birthday cards for a late birthday party invitation. I am not a quick thinker-upper, nor a last minute procrastinator, so this was stressful. Thank goodness for Pinterest!
Both card designs are inspiration taken from Pinterest.
I wrote the names for the envelopes on scraps...in case I had to write them a bunch of times to get something presentable in public. Otherwise a whole lot of perfectly good envelopes end up in the trash.
I then cut out the names, inked around the edges and glued them to the envelopes.
I was pretty happy with these card results. And so were my recipients. Whew!
Happy Day!

Sweet....So many wonderful ideas shared in the Pinterest world. Love the candles.
Well who wouldn't be over the moon receiving them?! Basically all the people who ever received any work of art from you are extremely fortunate in life Annie and that's the truth :)

:) So much fun to see what you have been up to, Annie! I love both of them!
Very clever. The writing is lovely and the candles are a nice touch.
Both cards have a lovely clarity of design and I am also taken by your decorated envelopes. Good idea to write out the name on a separate piece and glue it on. I do like the painted brush names.
Wonderful cards Annie and such a great tip to do the writing on a separate piece of paper, the envelopes are as special as the cards! Deb xo
The cards are gift as well! Beautiful yet simple designs, wow, love them.
Great cards! And you are so smart writing on the scraps... I would have ruined a ton of envelopes for sure! Lol and your hand writing is beautiful BTW!
Love both of these birthday cards, Annie. I am going to CASE your second card for my S-I-L as the design is perfectly suited as masculine!!
Those are both beautiful birthday cards. Great idea of writing the name on scraps and gluing it to the envelope.
Love your cards. They are a gift in themselves. You are so talented!
