My nephew Dalton turned 18 recently so I wanted to make him a “funky” birthday card.  This is supposed to be a birthday present with a black bow on it.  I’ve used the Bow Builder Punch a lot lately to make bows for my fudge boxes.  Please see a couple of the posts here and here.

In Iowa we got at least six inches of snow today, so my youngest son, Keegan, has been busy blowing and shoveling snow.  He gets money from some of the neighbors and does the widow’s snow for free.

Our oldest son, Sean, heads back to Seattle early tomorrow morning.  I hope his flight isn’t cancelled so he can get back to work, but we are also sad to see him go.  At our house it’s always a party when Sean is home!

Hope you have a wonderful day!

Blessings,

Beth 🙂

Birthday Fudge Box

My friend and neighbor, Janeen, was having a birthday today and I know she happens to really like Steve’s fudge.  I decided it was time to whip up a Birthday Fudge Box.  Yesterday I did two tone bows on my Christmas Fudge Boxes, see them here.  So today I decided to make the bow with Bohemian Designer Series Paper with an accent of Blackberry Bliss on the center.  I also used the Softly Falling Textured Impressions Embossing Folder on the 6 x 6 cardstock before I folded it into a box.

Janeen has lots of boys, so I added a small plate of fudge so she could enjoy her big piece of birthday fudge all by herself.  She texted me and told me how much she loved the fudge and the box! Her freshman son, Noah, has a varsity wrestling match coming up, so they hid a couple of pieces of fudge for after he “makes weight.”

Superman turns 52 today!

Well not that Superman, but my Superman is 52 today!  Happy Birthday Steve!  The kids and I love you so much! I was blessed to meet my husband at age 12, so I’ve known him for 40 years.  He is an awesome husband and father. A year ago, Steve started a healthy eating and working out program.  He’s lost around 50 lbs, completed three triathlons and is quite burly.  Hence his new nickname, Superman.  He’s competing in a year long challenge at Farrell’s and also doing the Isagenix’s Isabody Challenge.  I’ll show you his official before and after photos in a few weeks, but you’ll see the change in these pictures.

He looks the best he’s ever looked in the entire 40 years!  I’m so proud of you honey and hope you have a wonderful birthday!
