Birthday Flowers

What a beautiful day...it may be a bit nippy, but the sun is shining.  Heading out shortly to pick up a new addition!  My daughter is getting a new puppy...for her, not me.  I don't need those hassles right now.  Puppies are like grandchildren...absolutely wonderful, and so nice to visit...but the hassles belong to someone else!


Flowers are always a safe bet for a classic birthday card and this one, Batchelors Button, is no exception.  It's just one of the many elegant floral images from Just Inklined.which I have coloured up with copics and pro-markers.

Supplies used:
Spellbinders die - Labels Twenty Two
Echo Park 6x6 pad - Victoria Gardens
Charcoal grey cardstock, small flourish stamp, dragonfly brad, peel-off sentiment

Thanks for popping by, and hope you have a wonderful sunny day too!

Dream Valley - #45 Anything Goes

    I got so excited to think you were getting a puppy! Best thing I did for myself when I lost my husband and I've never been sorry, but then that's me and you know what's best for you. Your card is breathtakingly beautiful. Love the soft colors and gorgeous background!
