Embrace Life Scalloped Easel Card based on project by Jenn Picard for UStampToday’s the day to give my birthday goodies to two lovely friends ~ thank goodness for UStamp because both ideas have come from this session and they are So Easy to recreate!  Haiku Double Pocket Purse based on project by Tracey Old for UStamp 

The Scalloped Easel card is going to my lovely Personal Trainer, Sharon, from Jigsaw Fitness.  I think that Sharon has single-handedly kept me sane over the last 12 months.  Being an ex-nurse, and of similar age, she is very aware of my ‘complex nature’ and has been gently firm with me.  I actually enJOY coming home from personal training because I feel so much better after the workout.  [I do confess to not always being excited about going in the first place!]

And, yesterday, it was Lovely Jenny’s birthday.  We are meeting with the ‘craft girls’ to have brunch at our favourite local restaurant.  I made Jenny the gorgeous Double Pocket Purse which holds a coordinating card and a little gift book (all about JOY!) – it’s like Tracey Old designed the Purse to fit the little book!   

I think that Jenn Picard and Tracey Old are two of my favourite-ist UStamp with Dawn designers.  I find myself gravitating to their projects, each UStamp session (there’s a new one from Jenn, just this last couple of days, which I am hanging out to make) and the end result always brings such JOY.

Thanks, Girls!

Happy Birthday, Sharon & Jenny!
