Today is MY Birthday :-)... and I love celebrating it!! I think there may (at some point) come a day where I might not want to celebrate it quite so enjoyably
(but I'm getting ever close to 40 and that time hasn't happened yet!). I celebrate all week long in what was dubbed the Birthday Extravaganza by some work friends years ago.
In my Ladies, Ink Blogging group there is another woman who also celebrates her birthday today and we have had a fun time talking about all the things she could do to have some of MY Birthday Extravaganza week for herself!! (I had to share, of course!!)
One of the things I wanted to do for her was send her one of my favorite cards ever... I made this last February and have hung to it ever since. I just LOVE it. But, for Michelle- the only other person I've ever met (who ALSO loves this stamping stuff like I do) who shares my birthday- it was worth it to send it to her!!
Please visit
Michelle and leave her some birthday love (me too!!)
Enjoy!

This is the last item (but filled to the brim with goodies inside for my SS) that I have to show you that I made for my SS. I altered this tin and used some my cricut and design studio software to make the label on the front. I stamped it in CTMH Hollyhock which matched the paper perfectly. The ribbon I've had for awhile, and used Bella Baubles on the front.
Isn't this cute? Used design studio w/ my cricut to make a Flower Shape for my SS recently (anything but a square card). Used some Hot off the Press paper (dp that is like cs and double sided to boot!). Cute flowers in the center, stamping and inking!! Love it!!
Sent this to a friend's mom recently. She had a bit of a scare, but it all turned out fine. Lots of prayer went her way :-)!! Cute cardstock, pp, and stickles. 
I used on the card. I used my watercolor pencils (b/c I am seriously considering SELLING my copics (if anyone out there wants to buy them!) on my studio G stamps.
She also sent me several packages of brads (which I've already used on scrapbook layouts and Terry's card) and some stamps that I am dying to use (and since I am typing this almost a week before it posts... maybe longer if I have to delay it b/c I *know* the other girls haven't gotten their stuff... I may ALREADY have used them and posted the cards!).
