My first granddaughter turned 9 in July and we had a blast! This girl is so amazing and tough! She can smack a softball like no one's business and do some serious butt kicking in karate! She's got some of the thickest hair I've ever seen, and believe me between my three girls and 4 granddaughters, I've seen and dealt with a lot! Emma is always sweet to me and always wants me to show her how to do something, knitting, crochet, and I can see us sewing together in the future. I love her to the moon and back and had to make a special card just for her.
Most of the birthday cards I made for my granddaughters come from my favorite, Miss Elisabeth Bell! I simply adore her images and can never get enough of them. For Emma's card, I used lots or purples (which I don't normally use), and had such a blast coloring her up!
True to form for me, she's got stickles all over her and the frame and flowers are done with Spellbinder dies and the Swiss Dot embossing folder from Cuttlebug addes some texture to her. Oh, and I can never forget the pearls! Oh, how I love me some pearls!
For anyone who was stopped by, thank you so much! I'm back in the swing and hope to be back with some fun cards and silly stories.
Enjoy!
