Vintage Birthday to Myself

I recieved a new order of 6x6 pads from My Minds Eye and I love them.  Today is my birthday so I made me a beautiful card. LOL  My hubby has spoiled me all day so far. I am a young 49 years old, 7 kids, 2 grandkids and two daughter-in-laws on a hobby farm in the most harsh climate in the USA.  Anyways I wanted to show you the card so here it is.

I colored her with Distressed Inks Walnut Stain, Brushed Corduroy for aging, and  Pine Needles.  The skin is Tea Dye and Worn Lipstick.


The round sentiment is from Papertrey Inks "Postal" and the embellies are from Websters Pages.  The doily I made from Papertrey Inks Doily dies.

The inside of the card are pieces of the MME Lost and Found paper pads Sunshine and Breeze.  I used a sentiment from Quietfire on the top of the writing side. I thought it was very appropriate sentiment for myself.


Thank you for browsing my card, Now it is time to eat the chocolate, chocolate frosted cake from my favorite bakery and Diet Coke from McDonalds. MMMM
