#imbringingbirthdaysback

Jean, my weekend walking friend of 25 years, took pity on me today and helped me as I tried to make as many birthday cards as possible for the #imbringingbirthdaysback campaign.  If you want me to send you a birthday card, send me your address and birthday!  Here’s what we came up with today.  Some of the cards will need to be quicker than this one, but I really like how it turned out.  We were inspired by a Julie Davidson card.

We used the Party Pop-Up Thinlits Dies.  The same ones I wasn’t going to buy when the 2016 Occasions catalog came out and now I will never get rid of them!

Even the inside of the card is cute!

I told you Jean is my weekend walking friend.  Jean and I have done one marathon together.  The Lake Tahoe Marathon- Imagine our surprise when we got there and found out the race wasn’t around the shore of the lake, it was in the surrounding mountains.  We ended up walking up the mountains and running down them.  They gave us a license plate holder when we finished. Because I will never, ever, ever do another marathon, my car needs to always have the “Lake Tahoe Marathon Finisher,” licence plate holder attached.  We’ve also done three half marathons in Des Moines.  Des Moines is a lot flatter than the mountains surrounding Lake Tahoe! We’ve also spent countless weekend hours walking and talking.  Jean is very patient.  I talk and she listens.  What more can you ask for than a good friend that listens and loves to come help make cards!  I always be there for you Jean, and let me know if you ever need to talk!

Please leave comments or questions at the top of this post.  I would love it if you would subscribe to my blog.

Blessings,
