Inkin with Val

I made a card for my daughter's birthday. She turned 20 while we were in Hawaii and I needed to get a package put together for her before we left. It was a big deal, the first time we were not going to be around for her birthday. So, I got busy and started creating. This is what I came up with. I showed my husband and he gently reminded me that Son #1's girlfriend was also having a birthday and maybe I should make another. hmmm what to do... Ok, this card is for the girlfriend. I will make another. My daughter always loved purple when she was growing up, I think I will start with that. Did I mention it was about 11pm the night before we left for Hawaii? yah...nothing like the last minute to stamp some cards... BUT! this is what I came up. I just love it. Let me know what YOU think ;)

Its HUGE this year and very sad in many ways .. So many favorites saying bye bye ~ 233 sets on the list with 45 wheels . You have until June 30th to get any of the retired sets .. Say Goodbye! The Retired List is Here! It's time to say goodbye to some old favorites while Stampin' Up! makes room in our new catalogue for hundreds of new stamps and accessories. If you've been holding off on getting those stamps on your wish list, now might be your last chance to get them before they're gone forever. One thing I want to mention... if you are wanting a wheel on the list, it needs to be ordered immediately. The wheels are on a "first come first serve" basis and when they are gone, they are gone!!!
