It's a special day today in our family. Our youngest, Little Soldier's Mother, has her birthday ... one she doesn't want for some reason .... it's not a biggie or an important one .. she just doesn't like the number!
We will all go out for a meal on Sunday, our family and friends, we will all have a lovely time and she will be the big ....... I won't say it .... she has a long way to go yet and lots of exciting times lie ahead. PJ says everyday is an adventure ..... she has lots ahead of her .....
... and on my desk lies her birthday card .... the finished edition!
I have been sorting through my box of finished cards, the blue one remains on my desk cos I thought it was inspiring .... my copy one did not work out right and is lying in the bin! The washi tape is still on my desk, I used some of it on a swap card on Saturday so they all remain in view.
I hope that we can all stay warm this coming week, the weather forecast is predicting a time to stay indoors and craft so have a good week.
I shall visit, early if Little Soldier has his nap .... later if he decides otherwise.
Hi Christine. Lovely cards there - well done. Hope you have a fantastic time as a family on Sunday.

Now I really want to know what that number is she doesn't like LOL. At least she won't be sad next year when she gets a year older. Lovely card to commemorate the occasion - putting her birth date on it instead of the dreaded number was a genius idea! Enjoy your family get together! zsuzsa #30

ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely card! Hope you all enjoy yourselves on Sunday. All the best - \enbroidRage #8 x
ReplyDeleteNumbers are important. I wonder why she doesn't care for this one. An association with something she'd rather not dwell on, perhaps. In any event, you're sure to have cheered her with your lovely card. Creative Blessings! Kelly #35

ReplyDeleteperhaps I ought to have said pinky purple really - LOL BJ
ReplyDeletePretty card, I know she'll love it, and warn her...it's only a number and even if she doesn't like it and thinks she's facing a year of it.....it'll feel like ten minutes on the other side! Happy happy returns, too!
ReplyDeleteHi Christine, very pretty card. I think we all go through those birthdays that make us feel well..... older but then suddenly you start to realise how lucky you are to have reached them. Life is so unpredictable that we just have to be grateful for every birthday we have Lol! Thanks for the visit to mine, have a great woyww and happy crafting, Angela x 20
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to Little Soldier's Mom, in 20 years she will look back on this birthday and laugh - "I was upset because of that?". I had my worst birthday at 40, I remember crying in the bathtub, and now at 63, I look back and think, I should have enjoyed that day! Silly me! Hope she has a wonderful birthday regardless, she deserves it. Thanks for sharing! Lindart #45
