Winter Jingle Birthday

So… you may notice that the blog looks a little different today?! Well, I finally got some time to play around with the new template that I got oh so long ago and I started to get it set up! There are still some things that I need to figure out but it’s functional and that’s all I can hope for for the time being! LOL! When you come to the home page by typing jkcardsonline.com into your browser you will get the new and improved home page! The first thing that you should see are the last three posts and under that is my little about me blurb and at the bottom is the store. If you have any issues with the site please let me know in the comments! I appreciate it!

Yesterday I was very productive and crafty! I got a bunch of cards made in the morning and then I headed over to Scrap-A-Latte in the afternoon to drop off the samples for next week’s class. Renee is away at CHA and Angie was minding the store, her hubby was there so we chatted for a bit. They both found out what a fountain of useless information I am, Marty was doing a crossword and asking for answers, I had them! LOL! I came home briefly and then stopped by my friend Maureen’s for a bit. Her son and his friend were painting the bathroom, such a fun smell! From there I came home and worked on my card for today and fiddled around with the blog.

Speaking of my card, it’s a nice simple birthday one for today! The base is Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock. My background is a piece of paper from the Doodlebug Polar Pals 6×6 Paper Pad. I used the Simon Says Stamp Jingle Snowflakes Craft Die to cut out three pieces of Solar White 80lb and adhered them to each other and the card with Elmer’s Multi-Purpose Spray Adhesive. Along the bottom is a thin strip of Gold Glimmer Paper and a strip of White that I stamped my greeting from the Simon Says Stamp Birthday Messages Photopolymer Stamp Set in Simon Says Stamp Surf Blue Ink. A few Pretty Pink Posh Gold Sequins around the die cut finish the card. I do love the simplicity of the card and that die cut is just cool! Get it, snowflakes, cool! LOL! I hope that you enjoyed my card for today! Thanks so much for stopping by and let me know what you think of the new blog design! Have a super duper Sunday! 🙂
