Happy Birthday!

I made this card for Shannon, a friend who's birthday was Monday based on the layout sketch above. I found the sketch on The ScrapRoom blog (http://thescraproomblog.blogspot.com/2013/05/making-cards-with-layout-sketch.html). I waited too late to link up with their challenge. I didn't see the deadline when I made this card. Anyway, I used American Crafts Hello for the background of the card, Basic Grey Life of the Party 6x6 paper pad, Martha Stewart Crafts Punch Pad, Simple Stories Happy Day 6x6 Paper Pad, the "Luv Ya" flower sticker is Sticko Best Friends, the flower sticker/medallion in the middle is My Mind's Eye Sweetheart Glitter Stickers (I added some bling to the center), the ribbon stickers under it are Kraft Stickers that I found in the $1 section at Target- I colored over them with American Crafts gel pens and added some bling from my stash, & the "Happy Birthday to You" sticker is Three Bugs in a Rug Celebrate Stickers. I just made her an Easter card and have always made her birthday cards! We met on Yahoo IM years ago, about 17 years, and have kept in touch thru texting and on Facebook! I have really missed scrapbooking layouts, but have been filling that void by making cards! I'm going to my cousin's wedding in Salisbury this weekend, so I plan to take my camera and take lots of pics to scrap! The wedding is going to be outside in a park and the weather is supposed to be beautiful! Oh, following up on my Mother's Day post, my grandmother is home from the hospital and is doing well! She's walking more than she did before the pacemaker was put in! Woohoo!  I also was the winner of the Fresh Brewed Designs Blog Hop that I posted about this past Monday! I won a stamp and can't wait to play with it and show it off!! I hope you all have a great Wednesday! TFL!
