It's my son's favorite holiday...well, OK, his third favorite after his birthday and Christmas. Today is Pi Day. He asked if I would make a card for his math teacher. How could I say no?
First, I stamped the actual number onto cardstock using Lawn Fawn's Quinn's 123s and Aquamarine Archival ink. I then stamped the birds and word bubbles from the Lawn Fawn A Birdie Told Me set. Lawn Fawn just released a coordinating bunch of dies called Lawn Cuts so it took no time at all to assemble my card. I used Harold's ABCs (another Lawn Fawn set) to stamp 'Happy' and 'Day'. As for the Pi symbol, I got lucky. There She Goes Clear Stamps has an adorable set called Cutie Pi. The sentiment actually said You're a cutie Pi but I trimmed off the words. I colored with my Copics and then added some texture to my symbol using the Lawn Fawn Belinda's Borders set. Voila, a Happy Pi Day card. I thinks this calls for pie.
Thanks for visiting.
LOVE LOVE LOVE this Melinda (I am a math teacher). Combining two AWESOME companies on one card! I hope you have a WONDERFUL Pi day!!

Thanks, Meredith. I appreciate you taking the time to look. Hope you have a wonderful Pi Day as well!
DeleteEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek!!!!!!!! Yes, I used 18 e's and eight exclamation points because that's how much I love this card!!! I love Pi Day!! I wanted to buy a Pi cookie cutter, bake a pie and use the pi cutter to cut the symbol into the crust.
ReplyDeleteMelinda this is so CUTE!!! Love the way you combined the stamp sets! Happy belated Pi Day :)
ReplyDeleteSeriously fun card Melinda! Love it! I'm a teacher and I would have sent you a fabulous thank you email! I hope your son's Math teacher did!
ReplyDeleteMelinda, my daughter also LOVES Pi Day...how funny is that?! Love your card, I bet your son's teacher loved it, too!
ReplyDeleteHi, I know this is years later, but if you still have that Pi stamp set, would you be open to selling it? emilyjones1@gmail.com :-)
