Birthday Boys

Hi there!

There's still time to enter my giveaway! You can find it here.

March is a busy birthday month in my family. Both of my boys celebrate this month. It's difficult for me to make guy cards, so I tried to create ones that match their personalities.

My youngest son's special day is today! Happy Birthday, David! He is 16 today and a total joy in our lives. . .so full of energy and life! He has this wonderful ability to make us laugh each and everyday! We love you so much, Bud! Here's the card I made for David.



My older son, Erich will be 20 on Friday. Wow! Life sure goes by fast! Erich is the more serious one of the two. He amazes us with his brilliant intelligence and kind heart! He has a beautiful, gentle soul. Happy Birthday, Erich! We love you very much! Here is the card I made for Erich.



Erich's card was inspired by Hero hostess, Sharon. She made a gorgeous card for the Hero Arts blog yesterday, and I loved it! Thank you for the inspiration, Sharon!

Thanks for stopping by today and letting me share the love we have for our boys! :)

Celebrating 100 With a Giveaway!

Happy day, everyone!

Giveaway is now closed.

I'm very excited today because I've just reached 100 followers! Woo, hoo! I've been keeping an eye on the number for some time now. It was at 95 for quite awhile, then stayed at 99 until yesterday. A big thank you to Janet (jintyoo7) for getting that number from 99 to 100! To celebrate, I'd like to do a giveaway. I've made a card to thank you all. . . .



and I will also be giving away these fun goodies. . . .



The only thing you have to do to enter the contest, is to leave me a comment here on this post and become a follower (if you're not already.) That's it. . . . .so easy! I'll keep the drawing open until Sunday, March 20th, 11:00pm Central Time, and will draw a random winner from all the comments.

I have so many reasons to thank all of you, I don't even know where to start. Without my Flickr and blogging friends, I would have given up a long time ago. Some of you may know that I have never felt very crafty and I still, to this day, make some pretty strange and not so great cards. But with all of your encouragement and kind words, with your friendship and support, I have hung in there and absolutely LOVE this hobby! I am so very grateful for each and every one of you! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Now let's celebrate together! Don't ya just love that number. . . .100?! :)
