happy birthday....

Good Friday to all...here we are one beautiful sunny warm day! wow the kids Spring Break was awesome! I hate to see it end! I was actually able to make a card for the Magnolia Down Under Challenge..which is BIRTHDAY! I made a Joy-Fold-Card and had lots of fun with it! Here is the site for Claudia's wonderful turtorial on a Joy-Fold-Card! Easy Peasy I tell ya!


I used copics for her hair and her face, the rest was using the prismas! For the balloons I used part of the stamp from Izzie has balloons.
I really hate to keep this so short but the weather is so nice I want to head out for a bit and enjoy it. They are calling for a little snow next week! Can you believe it. March came in like a lamb so maybe it is going to go out like a lion!!!!
