Happy Birthday Danni! I hope this is an absolute perfect day for you!
I hope you made you way here from Anitas wonderful blog.If you did not please go back and start at the beginning and enjoy so many beautiful birthday cards. You will be glad that you did!
WOOHOO I am in my blog! I really was not sure I could remember how to get started. Danni I can not thank you enough for including me in this birthday blog hop. Seems life both hard and exciting has drawn me into a crafting black hole. I miss it so much but find that when I try to come back I allow life to get in the way. I was determined to take this opportunity and dust off the blog........ Little did I know that just a short time after I asked to be added to the group, my husband would be dropping out of the work world suddenly. Yep, packing a lunch on Monday only to have him home for lunch the same day, Forty Five years of him going off to work were suddenly a thing of the past. So now I am married to a retiree. The adventure has begun. I almost used that as my excuse to back out of this but......... Decided to persevere. I NEED time in the craft cave more than ever.
My daughter, Adrienne has a birthday on the 4th also. This is her card. She LOVES purple so it was a must for the card. I truly struggled with it, and this is no where near what was in my head LOL. And am only somewhat ok with the finished card. Yep, wanted even more to use an excuse but not doing it hahahahahaha........ I want to pick it apart and give you details of the struggle, but I will spare you. I am sure that Adrienne will love it with all my perceived flaws.
I love everyone's coloring skills but have not been able to master that, thus I am still paper piecing. This cute elephant is a cut file from Miss Kates Cuttables And the rest is pretty self explanatory.
Again thank you so very much Danni. You motivated me to leave my comfort zone and try something new. I am believing that this is the first of many more days playing with paper. It is truly my therapy...... and I can sure use some of that! Now hop along and visit with Sammie for a bit.
Thank you for your precious time with me and wishing for you many blessings today.
Your crafting friend,
Brenda
