Surprise Birthday Hop for Kelly Marie!


I'm wishing my sweet friend and wonderful boss, Kelly Marie Alvarez, a very happy birthday today along with just a few of her talented friends! I'm following Laurel Beard in the hop lineup today. In case you missed the beginning, you can start at Tiffany's blog.

Isn't that birthday banner adorable? It was created by Erica, one of the owners of Lawn Fawn. She's the artist behind our favorite stamp designs! Thanks so much, Erica! Here's Erica's birthday greeting for Kelly:

I hope you have a wonderful birthday Kelly! I'm sending lots of smiles and happiness your way. Try and take the day off to celebrate... or at least the evening! Hugs and love, Erica

I know that Kelly loves the new Yeti and I also know that a day off for Kelly is about as rare as a Yeti sighting; so I decided to capture one in the wild and add her to my birthday party scene.


I used the banner dies from the Stitched Journaling Card Lawn Cuts set to make the happy birthday banner. The tiny heart is from Check this Out. I added some fashionably long eyelashes to my yeti.



Happy Birthday, Kelly! 
Wishing you a wonderful year ahead, filled with love and laughter!





I hope you will join us in wishing Kelly a very happy birthday! Next on the hop is my sweet friend, Ivy!

blessings,
nancy
