Next week my daughter will be having her 17th birthday! Wow...where oh where did the time go. I hate that she is not that little girl with the pigtails, running around without a care in the world. Now she seems to be wanting her own space...meaning that now HER FRIENDS are the center of her world!LOL Well, to me she will always be my special girl.
I pulled out my beloved distress inks for this little hanglar. Now, I don't have alot of colours, so I went and ordered a whole bunch from Stampin Up. Oh I can hardly wait to play with some new colours. I don't know if you can tell, but her little shirt does not match my cardstock. I really do like things all matchy..but I just did not have the colours....hopefully my new order will help me out!

Oh Chris, I know what you mean. My daughter was 20 in January, (not a teenager now!) and I hated that!
It only seems a few years ago she was standing on a stool in the porch waiting for her daddy to come in from wrok (she was about 4!!)
Your card is beautiful your daughter will love it. Nothing wrong with her shirt to me. Debbiexx

Happy Birthday to your daughter,hope she has a fabulous day

Little Miss hAnglar's shirt looks like a perfect match to me on this beautiful card! Love the design with the pretty shaped pull-out, Christine. I'm sure Breanne will LOVE it! Hugs, Lesley

You know, I don't normally like images with no faces but you kinda won me over on this one. She looks so sweet and friendly.Beautiful card.
(Of course Hanglars aren't like the "other" more potato headed creatures that everyone is so fond of.lol)
Soooo cute Christine! The pink looks absolutely perfect on this card - the darker hue of the paper draws out the pink even more on her dress! Such a pretty layout and I love how you used the flowers around sentiment! A very Happy Birthday to Breanne - wow 17 already!!
Hugs, Danielle
This is absolutely precious Christine.. I love watercoloring with inks.. I also color with the SU markers too. She is going to love this. It is so hard to watch them grow up. I miss those days too. Makes me sad to even think about it sometimes. Mine are 22,21,19.. Treasured times for sure..
From where I'm sitting everything looks perfectly matched Christine, a very pretty card for your very special girl.
This is beautiful Christine, I'm sure Breanne will love it. I think I have a sheet of that pretty flowery paper somewhere!
Very pretty and feminine, you did a great job as always. Love your paper choice.
Adorable sweet card Christine.
luv

Happy 17th Birthday to your daughter Christine. She will love this card for sure. Absolutely stunning, your colouring is always so perfect. hugs Sharon
Hi Christine. Really beautiful card. Love the papers and layout and the little tag is a great idea. Beautifully coloured image and love the little sentiment you have used. I'm sure your daughter will love it and I hope she enjoys her birthday. Enjoy your weekend too. Donna
This is absolutely beautiful. I adore this image and so wonderfully coloured. Those papers are so pretty. She is one lucky girl to be getting such a fantastic card. Have a great weekend. Marianne x
Hi Christine your card is stunning and no I dont see the difference in the pinks so stop worrying.
And yes girls do grow up, my eldest is 49 next month and I can remember her when she was that size and time goes by so quickly they grow up and have little ones of their own, and her son is 31 next month so it just goes to show, time just does play tricks on us. With love and hugs Shirleyxxxxxxx
Gorgeous Christine! Breanne will love this.
Gorgeous card Christine. Beautiful colours and beautifully coloured. Breanne will love it,it's definitely a special card for a special girl.

Awwe your going to make me cry Christine.. I know don't they grow up so fast.. Their little pig tails are curled locks, and tiny hands are painted finger nails, Instead of saying where your helmet your saying buckle up and drive safe... Oh boy I am so mushy today and you started it lol.... The card is fantastic and she will cherish it instead of coloring on it ..lol... Have a great weekend !!
OMG!! This is super cute!!! I just love your sweet and beautiful style! The pearls and flowers are so pretty too! Thank you for sharing :):)
Gorgeous!! I love the way you have the tag on the side. Your coloring and color choices are beautiful. Happy Birthday to your daughter!!
WOWWWWWWWWWWZAAAAAA! Love that pull-out tag and the way you did the sentiment!
Hi Chistine, this card is so sweet. Pretty colors and papers and of course that little Hangler is adorable. Be patient, my friend, after these teenage years they come back around and get that Mom knows what she's talking about and you get a best friend forever!
Hugs

A beautiful card Christine, I love the soft colours and the gorgeous image.
