HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!

Oh my beautiful Sophia Grace (Sophie G). You make me smile every day! I love you more than words can ever describe!

Sophie shares her birthday with my special friend, Joy!

Happy Birthday Joy!





Here is a card I made with the new OCL stamp set Hangin' Loose with Kona....Look how CUTE!!! KOWABUNGA DUDE! It's your birthday!

This is also for the SCS Color Challenge this week:
CC220 (bashful blue, pumpkin pie, so saffron). I used Crate Paper (Roper from the Cowboy pack). I used the textile cuttlebug folder for the bashful layer. Can you see the stitching (zig zag) adhering the bashful to the saffron. I used some stitching on the bottom too -- to attach the patterned paper to the bashful layer on the bottom. I used a mayarts ribbon threaded through a saffron button, tied in a bow. It's easy to get a nice tight bow when you thread it through the button! Which leads me to this weeks WT220 Challenge - ways to use buttons! This is the first time I have threaded the button like this and I love it -- I could *reall* get that button on there nice!

Kona is colored in with copics. I also used stickles on the waves to make em sparkle! I know this won't get to Joy in time, but it will get there eventually!

Love you Joy! And I LOVE YOU SOPHIE G!
