Yesterday was my sweet Dad's 90th Birthday!  We celebrated last night with family at one of our favorite Mexican restaurants in Southeast Texas. 

Our Dad is a fit, fun, and full of life 90 year old!  We had so much fun.  Two of my siblings were there...my youngest brother joined via FaceTime from Oklahoma.

Three of his siblings were able to join us.  His brother was visiting family in Houston.  There were 11 siblings in their family.

Here he is with sweet little Mia!

I made the cupcake toppers for his birthday cupcakes using the Make A Difference stamp set and the Golden Honey Designer Paper from the Sale-A-Bration brochure

Mia helped me make the birthday card using a retired stamp set and the Country Club Designer Series Paper.

It was a grand celebration for Dad's 90th!  Thanks for tuning in to read all about it!

Happy Monday! To start off the week, let's look at a fun watercolor technique on this Memorable Mosaic card idea.

Here's the how-to video tutorial!

Today's project is another cardmaking idea from World Card Making Die with pretty die cuts and a watercolor technique.

This Well Written die cuts are the perfect size for the front of a card.  It's also in a beautiful hand written font that is very easy to read.

Lisa's Inklings:

• Base is Mossy Meadow cut at 4-1/4" x 11" and 1/2" x 11".
• The designer paper from Perennial Essence was cut at 4" x 5-1/4" and cut in half diagonally.

Today is our Mia's second birthday and I wanted to share some photos of her precious birthday "paw-ty" that her momma planned. 

Mia loves puppies so her party theme was Disney dogs!  Even her outfit went along with the theme!

There were lots of fun treats!

And, what's a paw-ty without hot dogs?!!

Look at this fabulous character cake!
For her guests, there were some fun activities!  Don't you love this adopt a puppy idea? (Banners made with the retired Stampin' Up! alphabet dies and Whisper White card stock.)

After adopting their puppy, the little guests could make a personalized collar!

And for more "paw-ty" favors, there were balls, frisbees,bubbles, and little reusable treat bags all in the doggie theme.

Bags by McKinney Made.
Use Code: MIAREESE15 for 15% off

More snacks and treats...  All in dog bowls! Food markers embellished puppies from the Dog Builder Punch!

Here are the doggie bags for take home treats!

Mia wasn't too sure about our singing!  LOL

For more fun... a pin the tail on the dog game!

And, the big hit with the kiddies...

All had a fun time and Mia had a very Happy Birthday!

Thanks for letting me share Mia's very Happy Birthday Paw-ty and I'll see you in the next post! 

Let's start the week off with a fun cardmaking technique using glossy card stock and our Stampin' Up! Classic Inks.

This is a super easy technique.  Here's a suggestion...prep and cut several pieces of glossy card stock so that you can make several of these backgrounds at once.  How nice to be prepared with a beautiful background when you need to make a quick card.

The colors used here are Pineapple Punch, Grapefruit Grove, and Lovely Lipstick.  Let's take a look at the video tutorial for the process. 

Lisa's Inkling:

• Have a tissue ready to keep your hands neat and clean.
• The Glossy Card Stock is cut 4" x 5-1/4".
• Cut your Stamping Sponges into wedges for ease of use.

On my Facebook Live last week, we made this pretty fun fold handmade card with the Incredible Like You stamp set from the Stampin' Up! Occasions Catalog.

Oh well!... Here's the inside of the card with the sentiment hidden behind the front square...

Let's take a look at the assembly in this how-to video tutorial.

Here are the details for this handmade card project:

• Base is cut 5 1/2" x 8 1/2". Score on the long side at 2 1/8" and 4 1/4".
• Whisper White Square is 2 3/4" square for sentiment and 3 1/2" x 4 3/4" for inside of the card.
