happy bee-lated birthday...


Everybody needs a stash of belated birthday cards:


I used MME paper and 

The Craft's Meow


I was inspired by the current CAS-ual Friday Challenge:



I gotta tell you, I have a gazillion cards...seriously, I'm a prolific card maker but can't seem to send out those gazillion cards...what.the.heck.

I thought I'd be proactive and just start making belated birthday cards:)

Seriously though, my goal is to send out 1 card this week....I'll gradually bump it up but realistically it's a challenge for me...don't know why...but I know I'm not alone.  

Want to join me in my happy mail challenge?

Go, go, go on mailing out those cards! I give a ton to my co-workers so that helps me use them! Love the sweet honey comb background Amy. Thanks so much for playing with us at CAS-ual Fridays!

Hey Amy I'm with you on the not sending out as many cards as I should, for how many cards I make! I did mail out 2 Mother's Day cards and a Thank you card recently—so there's hope! ;) Love your tall Bee-lated Birthday card!
And hehehehehehe... I can't wait to send mine out as they cause clutter in my card basket! LOL!!! I loveeeeeeeeeeeeeee this! Tooooooooooo cute!!! That MME paper is perfect for the bee!

Audrey Pettit said…
I make the cards and never seem to mail them, too! I think my problem is that I make my cards too darn bumpy to go through the mail. ;)
Your card is really adorable! Such a fun design and awesome use of those stamps. You made me smile with your comment about just making belated birthday cards!!

This is not just FUN, it is FABULOUS too!

I wonder how many crafters are just like you (and me...hanging my head in shame). We crank out the projects and cards, and then never get around to sending them out. I will join you on your vow to send more happiness out through the mail! Besides, my finished card stash is getting way too big and overflowing!

Fortuntatly, I am in charge of sending out birthday cards at our church so....I do have to have a card making day for myself to mass produce birthday cards. Even though...I do make cards I cant bring myself to give away! LOL

Those stamps and that paper were made for each other!

A formidable challenge - but a good one!
