Happy Birthday To A Sweet Friend






Happy Birthday Darnell!

Bev and Ardyth are the party planners, Thanks!

colourQ challenge #248…


So happy to have a chance to play in Virginia's Challenge!

You are getting red , white and blue Darnell, because your big day is so close to the 4th of July. I do the same for my two sisters.

Edited to add:
I often wake up in the very early morning : once in an email Darnell called it Dark O Clock... I love that,
now I say that often.


Hope you have the best birthday and know how much you are loved Darnell! Because you are! You have a gift of making everyone feel special. Now it’s our turn to make you feel special!

I used Waltzingmouse Stamps and Dies on my card.

  12. If I left a comment on each of your fabulous posts, my computer would run out of electrons! Your talent for composition and color never cease to amaze me. I always want to play with my stamps after I see what you've done.

    A storm is coming up the east coast today through the 4th, so we'll be having it on the fifth. I bet you will be having that perfect weather of yours, and will spend the country's birthday up to your chin in relatives. Have a wonderful time, and as always, thanks for sharing your enormous talent and heart.

  19. Oh so gorgeous! This is a favorite stamp set of mine, and I first saw it on a card you did, and fell of love. Just a perfect bd card for a special lady!

  20. This card is so stunning on so many levels! First off, I love the absolutely fresh and clean look you created with it. Your lines and colors and stamping are impeccable! It looks like a professionally printed card (only a million times better, of course)! I really like how you made the leaves playfully dangling off the side of the card. That's a great technique that I never would've thought of. I also adore the color palette you chose. The sequins give it just the right bit of bling and the sentiment is perfect with its elegant script. I really enjoyed seeing this card and am so glad you submitted it to our weekly challenge here at the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog!

  21. So lovely, Marybeth. Amazing colors. The black base serves as the perfect palette for your focal panel; everything just pops, even the subtle beige leaves. I just know Miss D. will adore this. So so glad you partied along. LOVE this. Bev
