Happy Friday Crafty Friends!
 
Today is my day to share over on the Lovebug Creations blog, and we are celebrating a Birthday!
 
Today is fellow CT Zeni's Birthday.  Happy Birthday Zeni!
 
I am also celebrating another very special Birthday that was earlier in the week.  My oldest baby turned 18!  I can't believe how time flies right by!
 
So today I am sharing a few Birthday projects with you.

Copic markers

And here is the gift and card that I made for my daughter's 18th Birthday:



 
 
 
Candle Supplies:
 The candle is from the "Make a Wish" svg kit from SVG Attic (the top comes off and you can fill it with goodies)

  10. Kathy, you have the most fantastic blog!!! I love stopping by to look at your inspiring projects. Know I'm here, even if sometimes I just have time to lurk and say nothing. LOVE IT!

    Anywhooo, I did want to say that your card for Zeni is adorable! I most like how you criss-crossed the card with the ribbon, and put your image atop of it. Why don't I think like this!!? Mmmm, yummy!
