Pssst! You didn't really believe that it was rainy & cold in California, did you?For me & Ann, there is NO SICK LEAVE! We do our best to stay healthy around here, but this is a 2 cold year for Ann. Both times, it took her bark hostage. Hope you enjoy this video we did last week when she wasn't 100%. She had a short spurt where her voice was working so I put her to work! Before the end, you can hear her bark slowly leaving.
But it was worth it so that we could bring you this cool quick card. If you're reading this in a reader, please click here to view. Everyone else can just click on the video box below & we hope you enjoy!
Hope you like it & will send us a picture of YOUR Flip Strip Card! Or feel free to send the real thing to us here at Central Bark (my house).

More birthday cards & a new video are coming this week so come on back!
Cecil's birthday is on Friday. It's a big one. On Saturday, Cecil opened the mail & noticed that he had a birthday card from his home state of North Carolina. It was from one of Ann's stampin' friends! Here's Diane Gardner's birthday card for Cecil using the Baroque Motiifs set #113490. You'll find it in the current Stampin' Up! catalog on page 131.
Actually, our newsletter readers are getting a special gift for sending Cecil a birthday card, but I think that Diane would've done it anyway for her homeboy. I love the way she used the Marble Technique, don't you?
It's been around awhile but you've just gotta have this versatile set! Thank you, Diane!
I liked this card when Ann used Certainly Celery for the leaves. But no! She couldn't leave well enough alone! She had to try to add Taken with Teal to the leaves & threw the color off so it looks more Glorious Green.
But you can't erase ink applied with an Aqua Painter!
Who would've thought that the same color challenge that inspired the projects in this post & this post would also inspire this card as well. This was made with the Abundant Hope set (Wood-#117054 - Clear-#118547) from the Stampin' Up! Occasions Mini Catalog. They all contain these 3 Stampin' Up! colors: Real Red, Taken with Teal & Crushed Curry.
We received Cecil's first birthday card yesterday from Diane Gardner from North Carolina. I'll share that with you tomorrow so pop back on by. (Cecil's from NC too!)
