An retired Air Force girlfriend has the same birthday month as I do. Every year in January we spend an overnight at the Colorado Casinos with another Army girlfriend and celebrate our birthdays. Here is the card I made for my Air Force girlfriend.
The carnation Memory Box stamp and die is an exclusive at
Simple Pleasures, a local LSS in Colorado Springs. I snatched it up because the Carnation is the flower for January birthdays! The birthday sentiment is from
Inspired by Stamping "A Lovely Birthday." Ribbon is Really Reasonable ribbon. Tomorrow I celebrate my actual Birthday with my Mom and Sister for lunch and DH and DD for dinner!
Blog Candy!
In honor of my birthday I am giving away two stamp sets to one lucky commenter on this blog post! You have until January 22nd to comment.
