THANKS!

Well, I had a GREAT weekend... and now I need to make about a million thank you cards.


Last weekend I thought we were going to my mom's for a nice low key birthday for me. Even though my birthday isn't actually until the 30th, it was the only weekend mom had free. We were supposed to do some shopping and some eating and chill. Well, I show up and my sister and her family had flown in. I got up Saturday morning and my dad took me in for a full body hour massage. I took a shower and did my hair and came out to the whole house decorated and set to have a huge party! Lots of people showed up and those who couldn't come sent cards and some even sent presents! Mom and Dad got me a Wii, Angie & Tim got me a Wii Fit, and I got gift cards and money, a beautiful jewelry box, a cool photo album, and flowers and it was just overwhelmingly awesome. So... the next week or two will be filled with Thank you cards!
This one was made using a sketch from a new challenge blog. Check it out HERE. Way fun sketch this week. I used papers from My Minds Eye, the stamp is Chloe Fairy from the Greeting Farm, colored with copics and some BLINGZ for the wings. I used a prima and a rhinestone for the flower embie.
Hope you have a very enjoyable day!

Hope your DH does something good for you on your actual B-day. Lucky you with the Wii Fit...although you don't look like you need it to lose weight. I'll try to remember to wish you a Happy birthday on the correct day but if I forget, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!"
