Spring Has Sprung!

HI FRIENDS!  I have missed you, and I had a WONDERFUL time singing in Charleston!  It couldn’t have gone better, and we got some nice recordings done as well, so it was super productive.  I do have pictures and will share soon!

I took Sharon’s Stamp Simply challenge to use for my dear Sophie’s birthday card!  Today Sophie turns NINE! OH how time flies!!!

I love you my little butternut!  She is the best kid I tell ya!  She is getting what she wants for her birthday too!  An oboe :)

So our challenge was to use our favorite flower set and go to it!  Get into a springy mood!  I cheated a bit and used two different sets for this.  I used Beautiful Blooms and Flower Garden for the embroidered flower on this card.  I only consider this “simple” because I embroidered that flower ages ago, so it didn’t REALLY feel like work!  Here is my card…

I hope she likes it.  I had a lot of fun making it for her and thinking about all of the ways she has grown over the last nine years!  I hope you all participate in this challenge!  If you want to…go to splitcoast and upload your pictures using keyword: ssnotime89
