Sunflower Birthday Card

September is a big birthday month in my family so I'm frantically making cards and trying not to get behind!

I love the sunflowers in the new Lawn Fawn set "Our Friendship Grows"! For this card I did some water-coloring with Distress Markers. A little bit of Wink of Stella gives the sunflowers a sparkly glow.

Celebrating with Family

I spent this past weekend at a lovely family gathering in Oxnard, California. My Aunt Kay and Uncle Fred were celebrating their 60th wedding anniversary and my uncle's 80th birthday. Family and friends assembled to fete an extraordinary couple at a Hawaiian themed party. My sister Donna and I had a wonderful time visiting with family, some that we hadn't seen in years, during this 2-day "60/80" event.

My aunt and uncle have nurtured a very close-knit, loving family; two children and their spouses, 4 grandchildren and 5 great-grandchildren.

Donna and I posed with the happy couple! Aunt Kay is my dad's younger sister.

I made a special card so Donna and I could express our thoughts of love and appreciation for our wonderful  aunt and uncle.

I used Distress Markers with Impression Obsession- Full Bloom Hollyhocks and a Technique Tuesday sentiment.

The inside sentiment combines Hero Arts, Lawn Fawn and the love stamp of unknown origin.

Thanks for visiting!
