Thank you, ladies!

A big thank you to everyone who remembered my birthday!! You helped to make today very special for me. :) Here is a group shot and a few close-ups. I hope to show you more this week when I have time to post again. Note: My camera was acting up this morning somewhat blurry -- bare with me.
Half of our kitchen table was covered in cards.

This sweet image from the It's My Birthday collection (C.C. Designs) was watercolored by Deb Corder in bright primary colors. The photos don't do it justice, as I think my focus was a bit off.

Another sweet image (Ginger Snaps collection from C.C. Designs) created by Kristine Breach a very dear friend to me and fellow DT member for KL SNS. Kristine always uses such amazing detail and lots of layers. Her cards are truly an inspiraiton to me. She is selling them now on Etsy too. Stop by her blog to get the link and take a look!!
This beautiful collection is from Jessica George a long-time friend, secret sister, and fellow DT member also. Jessica's goodie box was SO much fun to open. It was like Christmas. I kept pulling one thing, then another . . . a tablet and pen, matching tin with PB cups (mmm), bath flower confetti, a sweet Inkadinkadoo sentiment stamp, adorable Tilda images and very well coordinated set!! She is WAY too good to me! Hugs, Jess!!

This beautiful never-ending card has gotten a lot of attention since it entered our home earlier this week. Any friend or family member that has seen it was very much intrigued. Thanks, Eileen, for this very unique card. I will show more photos of this one later this week, too. It has about 4 scenes on it that I know you will love to see!! :)

The work week is a busy one, as I am training a couple of new girls and so that means conference calls on both Monday and Tuesday this week, so I hope to be back sometime before the end of the week to show you more closeups of some more of these cards. Stay tuned for more.
Hugs to you all! :)
