I decided to make a couple of retirement cards as over the next few months/years, a LOT of my co-workers will be retiring. Best to start now so I'm not rushing at the last minute! The next one retires in August!

For this first card, I used stamped a sentiment from the No Worries Scrapbooking and Thin Cuts Bundle on one of the PML cards from the paper pack, embellished with some of the No Worries Sequins. The layout is one I lifted from one of the Little Dreamers scrapbook pages in the Idea Book!
Oh -- and the mat for the PML card? Cut from a coordinating Sapphire Enchantment Fundamentals paper. The card base is colonial white card stock and the card finishes at 6" x 6".

For this second card (4.25 x 4.4) I used Kraft cardstock for the base. Again, I embellished with the No Worries Sequins. The sentiments and die cuts are from the No Worries Card making and Thin Cuts bundle. The layout for this card was inspired by one of the No Worries scrapbooking layouts in the Idea Book.

Now - on to your next stop on the hop at Heather's Paper Playroom.
