Sketch 469~Slimline Happy Birthday

I hope you all had a lovely Easter 

weekend.  Our kiddos were home, and

we were busy little bees moving. I just 

was the supervisor. haha 

I did manage to make us a small dinner,

with ham, turkey potatoes, and such.

We went to church in the morning and 

we sang one of my all time favorite 

Easter songs.  I even sang too.  Although

my hearing is a bit off and my voice

don't carry a tune.  I joined in anyways.

He Arose

This song makes my heart so happy.

I made this card for my friend who 

will be having a birthday in May.

I'm always perplexed on what to give

her for a gift.  She has truly spoiled 

me over the years of our friendship  

Our finances are not nearly as grand,

but I try to get her something.  I'm 

happy to say I know what it is this year.

He card is the hint.  I finally found a tea

I can actually drink and not get a frown with.

I love sweet ice tea, but I'm not much of 

a warm drinker   I like my occasional hot 

chocolate extra chocolate and sugar please.

But otherwise no coffee or teas for this gal.

Until now.  I love this tea

Hot cinnamon sunset.  It reminds me of 

red hot candies, and I love those. 

This tea will be part of her gift. 

I'm going to submit this card to the 

challenge at:

Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge

Stamp sets featured in this card are:

Stampin Up:  Tea Together

Happiest of Birthdays

Buffalo Check

In making the card I over emphasized the 

circles in the sketch just so I could use

the paper doilies.  Then I spruced 

them up with a little stamped check pattern.

It reminds me of a picnic blanket.  The rest 

is all stamped, colored, and then try to fit

it all on my slimline card.  The gold embellishments

are the perfect touch to make the flowers pop.

I thought I'd include a few pictures of HP.

he is doing ok.  We took him in to have his 

spring shave, and so he's all fresh, and

quite cold now.  He has to have his little blankie 

to cover up with.  He is snoozing on 

the couch right now as I type this.  Of course

he has a a kennel bed, and a little bed next to the 

couch but he thinks he needs to be on the 

couch so hence the reason we have a blanket 

always covering it.  I mean who can say no 

to this little guy.  

He's still drinking, and eating so that's all

a bonus.  He don't seem to be in pain. 

He's just a little sweetheart.  60 pounds of love. 

Our family is in transition right now,

and could use prayers.  I am not at liberty to 

speak on the details yet.  But if you 

could pray for guidance and wisdom to make 

the best choices that would very much be appreciated.

THANK YOU. 

Thank you for your continued prayers and

encouragement as I recover from covid.  

And also,  for my dog, HP.
