Just for Fun


Happy Sunday...hope you all are having a relaxing day.  My day was fun, after church went to lunch with some girlfriends, then back home and made a card, then off to my mom's dance recital. She has been tap dancing for what seems like forever.  I love watching her dance up on stage, she is very good and it makes me smile, I am so proud of her.  Now I am back at home and posting my card and chatting with stamping friends on FaceBook, it does not get much better than this!

My card is just for fun, no challenges at all this time.  In fact I fell in love with a card that Joyce from Cards-by-the-Sea made yesterday that I wanted to make one of my own.  It is just about exactly the same other than hers is a congratulations card and I made mine a birthday card.  I had to show Ashleigh what I made because it turned out so cute...well she loved it and kept shaking the card so that is why some of the sequins block parts of my sentiments...leave it to kids!
Thank you so much for stopping by to peek at my card...have a great rest of your day!
