Just another day right? Today is my birthday and so far I have received several dirty diapers, a couple of bites on my shoulder as well as an early AM wake up call from my little girlie goos. Guess they were just impatient to wish my Happy Birthday. I will probably eat left overs all day and the only way I would get a birthday cake is if I made myself one...geez haven't had one of those in about 5-6 years!! Sadly I will probably spend the day by myself with my little ladies doing chores or food shopping since hubby is working.
But I did get something to brighten my day. Early this morning my doorbell rang and it was the two young boys who live behind me standing there each with handmade cards for me. I just started to tear up because that is what it's all about. Those things are what I treasure the most..handmade items!
Anyways I figured I would spend what time I had doing something I enjoy...crafting...maybe I will be humming in the back...Happy Birthday to me...LOL!
Here is a layout I made of my friends daughter. I am working on the second half of it as we speak. I used Locker Talk and Winter Wonderland Cricut Cartridges as well as the MS Lattice Edge punch. Awhile back I picked up the Big Bite and never used it. I actually broke that out and used it on the large eyelets.
I designed this layout around the following challenges:
A Crafty Little Place Sketch challenge
The Playdate Cafe Color challenge
A Spoon Full of Sugar Cute & Girly challenge
The Pink ElephantScrapbook challenge
Well I am off to heat up some leftover beef enchiladas for breakfast...yummy...why be healthy on your birthday????
Happy Birthday Lisa! I hope you have an awesome day. Enjoy those enchiladas for breakfast! :)
ReplyDeleteHAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! I hope you have a good day. I too would probably never get a cake, but I tell my husband a week before what kind of ice-cream cake he can buy me!! If he doesn't bring it home, momma is not happy, get tough! Shari (cricutrookie)
ReplyDeleteHappy Blessed birthday Lisa from hot and sunny Singapore. I am glad I pop by your blog and am able to wish you happy birthday just before I call it a day! It is past midnight now. I just completed the card for Sam and will be mailing it out on Monday.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your day!
Cheers
