Retirement Card

 A friend asked me to make a retirement card for her to give to her friend, and that is about all the information I received.  I struggled a bit as to what I could make for someone that I don't know or know anything about.  So, I hope she is happy with this card.

The front of the card is made using a computer generated sentiment that I cut out using Stitched Rectangle Layers die from Memory Box,  and Graphic 45 Designer paper.  I also used a die from SweetNSassy stamps,(Sun die)  added a button and a background dry embossed using a cuttlebug folder (Swiss dots)

This is the inside of my card.  I made it using a Sweet N Sassy stamp  (SNS-11-023 Ocean Paradise).
This is another NBUS stamp (Not been used before)  I'm trying very hard to start using my craft things that have been sitting a while.  I used Graphic 45 paper and paper pieced the umbrella.
I haven't made too many pop-up cards so this one took me a while to do.  I colored the chair with copics.
