Taking Action With A Wobble - Retirement Card

It's been a long time since I made a card to submit for a challenge, but here goes..........this is a retirement card for a church lady who has given 110% of her time and talents over the last years.  It's now 5 o'clock everyday for her and to celebrate, I created a little something for her special party using an action wobble on the inside for some giggles and grins.


I used two Art Impression Stamps for the focal images on my triple-embossed card plus the following:
*Mama LoveBug's private reserve rumple ribbon
*Sentiments from print and cut from the Cameo store
*Stampin Up embossing folder and cardstock
*Ranger distressed ink
*and of course, an ACTION WOBBLE on the inside


I'm entering this in the Action Wobble Challenge found HERE

Remember no matter how you bunch your blooms, rumple your ribbon, and piece your paper, have fun with it...........cyberhugs........Mama LoveBug

Mama Lovebug & Dawn Mercedes Welcome Spring and the Change of Seasons

Welcome Spring and the Change of Seasons plus perhaps a Change of Circumstance.

Mama Lovebug here today with a gift idea for a retirement.  This can be quite a dramatic change in one's season of daily routine.  Do you know someone who is retiring?  Have you been thinking of making a special card for that person?  I had occasion to create just such a card using a vintage freebie digi stamp - a corset.  I thought this would go along with a computer-generated sentiment - Corset's Your Retirement (hey you could use it for a birthday too - Corset's Your Birthday) - get the idea??

Here is my Double-Sided Stand- Up Corset You're Retiring Card:
The Top
 The Bottom

The Whole Corset
Recipe:
*Vintage freebie image - printed twice in two horizontal directions, fussy cut, adhered to another fussy cut layer (making a total of four fussy cuttings)
*Crop-o-dile punching down the center and decorative glittery brads
*Stickles for top and bottom and Stardust Clear gel pen
*Computer-generated sentiment
*Trim for bottom and three bows made from our LoveBug Creations Rumple Ribbon at the LBC Store
*Double-sided tape for the top to adhere to the other side of the card

I had a lot of fun making this one and I hope you're inspired to try your hand at making one too.........cyberhugs...........Mama LoveBug

Now on to Dawn Mercedes' Project!
A quick card b/c I have been on the verge of flu...trying to keep it at bay!
