Hap Scrappy: Happy Birthday Emily

Happy Birthday Emily

My eldest daughter Emily turned 36 years old yesterday...so hard to believe that much time has passed since I delivered her!! She's already joking what an old hag she is! She's a wonderful daughter, and runs a house with six of our grandchildren & her husband Jason. I don't know how in the world she survives...I only had two girls & one boy. This is the birthday card I made for her. She likes her glass of wine in the evenings, and this cute Mo's Digital image called Party Girls seemed perfect! One of Emily's favorite colors is green, and I think the pink & green panel look good together on the card. I colored her with Promarkers & followed the sketch & color inspiration from Your Next Stamp's monthly challenge to create it. I was looking for a happy birthday sentiment, but came across a free sentiment "How Bad Can Good Girls Get?" and it made me chuckle ( I knew she was headed out that night with her girlfriends to celebrate her birthday!) Sorry, I have no idea where it came from. Anyway...I used a Spellbinder die to mount the sentiment on with foam dots, created the strip across the lower end with an EK Border Punch, and added some colored pearls. All the items used including the paper were from my stash. Inside the card says " Kick up your Heels & have a Happy Birthday". I hope she likes it! Thanks for stopping by to take a peek!
