Patch Tilda says...Make a wish & Happy Birthday to you!!!


It is pretty darn tootin' cold out there today!!! We got a ton more snow last night!! Oh, my goodness, we are running out of places to put it!!! My poor hubby, Chirs, had to get up at 6:00 am to go to work. I was very glad to be able to stay in bed, all snuggled up, in my warm duvet for little bit longer,smile!!!
well, I have two cards to share with you this morning that remind me of spring!!! I used this gorgeous Daisy Bucket Designs paper that I have had in my stash for a while now! I just loved how my Sealed with a Kiss card turned out and so I pulled out this yum-o paper when I realized I had two special b-day cards to make!

The first card I made for a friend at work and the second card is for my sweet, BG DT buddy, Jo! (It's safe to show them to ya now as both ladies have already received their cards.)

The card base is 5 1/2 X 5 1/2 made with white Bazzill Swiss Dots cardstock. I stamped the images of Patch Tilda on Georgia Pacific paper with Tuxedo Black Memento ink and coloured them with my Copic markers!
Well, I was very happy with how these cards turned and it was a lot of fun making them!!!

Thanks for stopping by and having a wee look-see!
Hugs,
