Belated Autumn Birthday - Kitchen Sink Stamps

I know it probably happens to the best of us, but I hate when it happens to me. I have my calendar set up so carefully with each person's birthday listed four days before their real birthday so that the card goes in the mail THAT day and arrives a little early or on time. Somehow my October got so filled and clogged with events and responsibilities that I somehow overlooked a birthday for a dear friend!

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, today's design sponsored by Kitchen Sink Stamps is my "make up to my friend" belated birthday card. I hope she will forgive me!!



The Kitchen Sink Stamps I used came from the following sets:


Color Recipe for the Squirrel:

Layer 3 - Stampin' Up Soft Suede
Layer 2 - Memento Potter's Clay
Layer 1 - Stampin' Up Creamy Caramel

The designer paper if from Sweater Weather Stack by DCWV.

I am entering this card in the following challenges:



Pattie's Creations Design Challenge - Challenge 152 Birthdays



And here's the Clean and Simple version for today's Clean and Simple Challenge 506 at Splitcoaststampers:


Color Recipe for the Squirrel:

Layer 3 - Memento Espresso Truffle
Layer 2 - Memento Potter's Clay
Layer 1 - Stampin' Up Creamy Caramel

Don't overlook the rest of the Kitchen Sink Crew!!

  2. Yes, I'm right there with you on forgetting many times and then I'm embarassed because I'm a card maker and we're "supposed" to remember these things, right?!! LOL!! Your cards are so CUTE and fun and just perfect for just such occasions too! :) Love the clever way you've added the 'belated' to the leaf accent on the top card!! Thanks for sharing! HUGS

  6. Lynn, I love the fantastic squirrel on your gorgeous cards! The first card is so beautiful with the squirrel and fall leaves. Your friend will be elated to receive it whether it is late or not. I saw the second card on SCS and thought you did a great job responding to the challenge. You create gorgeous cards with the Kitchen Sink stamps, Lynn! Hugs!
