Manly Monday Red Retirement Card

I used the draw and cut function on my Cricut. The background was dry embossed with a Provo Craft/Cuttlebug embossing folder. Then I inked it like a crazy person with distress ink. Idk what my deal was. I was an inking idiot. LoL! Thanks for looking. HAGD!

Manly Monday Brick Retirement card

I was asked to make cards for retiring staff members, or in this case, he was leaving this job for another. The committee gave each person a brick with their name on it that will pave the front entrance to the school.

 I used a Darice brick dry embossing folder on white cardstock and rubbed Versa Mark on them and heat embossed the bricks with white embossing powder by myStamp Box. Then I heat embossed the name and sentiment with Lawn Fawn alphabet stamps. The ribbon is by Offray, and the cardstock by Recollections

Hot air balloon Retirement card

I made this card for the secretary at my husband’s dentist office. She was retiring. I almost didn't want to give it away. But I was nice and so I did. Thanks for looking.
