It has been some time since I have even had time to make a card, so it was fun to actually sit down at my craft desk and be creative. Last week I subbed every day and Saturday was our annual school auction and I was this years chairperson. So happy to say that it was a huge success and that it is over and my life can return to normal.
This month's theme for
Papertrey Ink's Blog Hop is sequins. I have some coming in the mail but they have not arrived so I had to find something to use in place of them. I decided to use pinks for my card so that I would be able to use it for more than one challenge...this weeks colors for
Dynamic Duos are two shades of pink.
This card is a thank you for all of you wonderful blog friends that attended my birthday blog hop, all of your cards were so sweet! Thank you
Joyce from Cards-by-the-Sea for taking the time to organize my surprise party, you are the best! I have also been behind on leaving blog comments and I am so sorry to all of those that I visit on a regular basis but now I am back on track. Thank you so much for taking time to stop by and take a peek at my card...have a fabulous day!
