Some of my downline will surprise me with card samples and other items they have made.  I’m just tickled when they do this for me!

Isn’t this a cute way to make purses using the different punches.  Thanks Wanda!

I adore the Sweet Pea felt flowers.  Wanda used them on this notebook.

Denise used a favorite layout of mine when she made this card.

The vellum overlay on the butterfly is so striking.  Thanks Denise!

This is my card from the Stamp Share for Leaders swap.  I get some of my best card samples from this swap.

Here are some beautiful birthday cards I received on my birthday:

This card was from my friend, Autumn.  I had to show a side view so you can see how she punched out the Trio Flowers and then added the silver brads.

My friend, Betty, was quite clever in using the Scallop Square Punch and 5-Petal Flower Punch as the flowers!

My friend, Peggy, was a busy using the Paper Piecing Technique on this cute card!

My daughter, Melanie, impressed me with this amazing card!

See all the candles on this cake?  Still not enough for this last birthday!  Love the colors that my friend, Cyndi, used.

Such a sweet, sweet card from my friend, Denise.

And, my friend, Wanda, wow’d me with this beautiful card!

This sweet card was a joint effort by my friend, Jenny, and her daughters, Elizabeth and Isabel.

Thanks everyone for your thoughtfulness in sending me a handmade birthday card this year!
