What happens at the salon...by Reneé Matarese

Hello Ai fans! 

I was so excited to make this card.  My hair dresser who I've been going to for the last 17 years is expanding her business.  She purchased the business next door and knocked down a wall.  They'll be providing spa mani/pedis now and I wanted to congratulate her.

How better to do that than with the 4 four funnest ladies around!

This image is from Art Impressions and is called Beauty in Progress Set (Sku#4240).

 

The adorable little sign and shelf are from Beauty Salon (Sku#3529).

The top verse on the inside is from the salon set and the CONGRATULATIONS is from  Hats Off Set (Sku#4289).

Deco Set by Kerry

Hello Ai friends and happy Monday!

Today, I'm sharing two cards featuring the Ai Deco set #1.  It's a super fun and easy to assemble.  And no coloring is required.  Don't take me wrong, I love to color...  but I just love the fact that I can punch out the die-cut and adhere each layer with some foam dots, added some embellishments.

Viola, I'm done!

The set included two designs:  'At the Movies' and 'Beauty in Progress'.

Ready to join the Girlfriends at the Movies?

Or, how about some pampering at the salon? 

Hope you like them and have a great week!

Pamper Yourself by Judith

Hello Ai Fans!

I don't know about you, but I could sure use some pampering like these lucky ladies!  Especially a lovely pedicure  - what bliss :)  

This fun image is called 'Beauty in Progress' and if you get the complete set it comes with three great sentiments.

Have a fabulous Friday :)
