~Happy Birthday, Maria!!!~

Sunday, March 23, 2014


Hello, and Happy Sunday to you all!
So glad you could stop in as we welcome another member into
the elite Fab 50 club.  My sweet and oh, so creative and talented friend, Maria
is turning 50 today, and a little party is being thrown in her honor.  This
past week sneaky notes have been passed, and hands have been busy
as friends have all tried to come up with cards worthy of this special occasion.
No easy task here, as Maria is one of THE most creative card makers I know, and
each one of her creations is a treat and absolute breath of fresh air.
How to match that creativity…I do not know…And, Maria,…
I know my card falls short as I've found myself back to work with little crafting time...

HAD to find time for this party, though, and I hope this bold and bright (which makes me think of you!;) card will do!  You are a jewel, and I'm so happy we've become
acquainted through blogging.  I do hope your time in the States with your family
has been enjoyable and memories have been made that you'll take back home and treasure!
Happy Birthday, my friend!!!
For those of you who know Maria and would like to join the festivities,  
the party is taking place over on Shirley Bampton's blog.
And for those of you wishing you could be inducted into this special and elite group
of women…
Your day will come…Your day will come!
Thanks so much for stopping in!
