Some call him "Uncle Bill"

And guess what?

"Uncle Bill" celebrated his birthday yesterday.

I'm sure his family and friends

treated him right.

Here's one of the cards he received.

Happy birthday, Uncle Bill.

Bettcha somebody's celebrating big!

And I bettcha that somebody is Krista!

And two cards!

One from her mamma.

She suggested I use this picture of her

and then do my magic around it.

The second card is from her co-worker and friend.

Love the Autumn flowers for an Autumn birthday.

And had to throw in a little bling, too.

Happy birthday, Krista.

Do it up big today and then keep celebrating!

Our Friends

No, this isn't really them.

But it could be them.

He's just that cray-cray!

We sure do miss them!

When we both lived in Ohio,

we spent a lot of time together.

Eating.

Laughing.

Talking.

Eating

and mostly Laughing.

Ohhhhhhhh, the stories we told.

Today they celebrate a special day.

Their anniversary.

Keep on honeymooning, you two!

Emilie celebrates

Happy birthday to you.

Happy birthday to you.

Happy birthday, dear Emilie.

Happy birthday to you!!!!!

Go ahead.
Sit down on that chippy metal chair

with all the flowers at your feet.
Celebrate!

Baby shower!!

Today Hayley will be receiving many gifts for her daughter.

How exciting!

I remember receiving soft receiving blankets,

bibs, diapers, towels and sheet sets.

And a stroller and a high chair.

All needed items.

Hayley will receive this card I created just for her.

This image is one of my favorites.

I hope she likes it!

Won't be long now

before you bring your little bundle of love home.

Two cards, one birthday girl

How lucky is she?

One from her sister.

How can you not love this porch

and those beautiful Autumn flowers?

And one from her niece.

The vessel is beautiful, the background is beautiful

and the roses take the cake! 

Happy birthday, Penny.

I hope your birthday celebrations

last all month long.

Make October your birthday pageant month.

Another trip around the sun

There's just something about a monochromatic card

that is so soothing to the eyes.

And especially so when it's

in shades of white.

A little bit vintage, a little bit romantic.

Both perfect to say 'happy birthday, Julie."
