SU Kick-Off Event!

Hi Everyone! My first SU event is this next week..My Kick-Off Party. Our theme is Birthday Cards and we are making 3 cards. Two I can show you, but the 3rd we are making using a new set out of the new catty that premiers July 1st. I'm so excited about the new items......sooooo neato. I know you all will be thrilled.



This set, Choo-Choo, is from the Occasions Mini Catalog. People have until June 30th to order...isn't this train simply adorable? My mom brought her set down a few weeks ago and my oldest, age 8, had so much fun playing with it. So, when Mr. Brown came delivering my box this week, he was so excited to see that Choo-Choo was inside!

My inspiration for this card came from a gal on Splitcoaststampers. Here is the link to her card.

Thoughts and Prayers is what I used for this card. Now, I know it says "Sharing in your Sorrow" and there is good reason for that...you know the old saying..Once a Dork, Always a Dork or something to that effect. I meant to stamp Birthday Wishes on it and just pulled out the sentiments that came with the lovely flower from Thoughts and Prayers......ack...DORK! So, the ones we will be making at the Kick-Off Event will have a birthday greeting in the corner.

Hope you all enjoy and I'm so excited to make these cards with the gals that will be attending the event. There will be lost of freebies and fun stuffs, too....and yummy treats...can't forget the treats!!!
