A Big Bright Happy Birthday!


Wow - I'm just popping in to share a card I made last night with you...before I collapse from exhaustion after the very long day I have had. Let's just say soccer tournament, dinner plans, shopping for the party tomorrow and four extra kids at my house overnight tonight!

I made this for several challenges...one of which is the Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge whose theme is summer memories and unfortunately, my hydrangeas are what I am really going to miss. I love this flowery bush and hate to see them turn into sticks every year. I'll just list the details and I really have to go to bed...lots to do for the cookout tomorrow - and the guest list grew too!

Challenges:
2S4Y - Kazan's Sketch #60
Colour Q #48 - Cherry, Daffodil, Tangerine, Turquoise, Vanilla and Kraft
Flourishes Timeless Tuesday #82 - Summer Memory
The Creative Cottage #22 - Celebrations!

My Crafty Recipe:
Stamp: Papertrey Ink Birthday Bash Sentiments
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Paper: Bazzill French Vanilla, Kraft
Copics: R37 and YR04 (to color the red and orange flowers and orange brad)
Other: Prima hydrangea flowers, Basic Grey brads, Cuttlebug Polka Dots EF


Have a great night and thanks for stopping by!
