44 on 4/4!!!

Four is my favorite number, so I guess today is my lucky day! 44 years ago today, I entered the world. ;) I woke up to some white tulips, my favorite flowers, and some great gifts - a Paper Trey gift certificate, a Sephora gift certificate and Breaking Dawn on CD. My wonderful hubby did a great job! Of course, the links I emailed him certainly helped with his shopping. Hee hee. Seriously, he never knows what to get me, so my 'hints' are always appreciated!!

Here are a couple of things I finished this morning. I was at Michael's the other day and picked up these stickers and rubons by Autumn leaves. I LOVE the colors. I started off with a couple of quick tags...



The Hambly paper is a really pretty shade of lime. For some reason it doesn't look quite right in the picture. I also used some fun SEI glittered cardstock.

This card uses the same products. It's based on this week's 2 Sketches 4 You. I almost didn't get it done on time, but I did!!! I turned the sketch and substituted flowers for the circles in the cluster. Also used my new EK Success punch. LOVE it!



Well, that's all for today. Off to celebrate my day with the people I love most. And tonight? We're watching the Final Four. Go Wildcats!!!

Thanks for stopping by!
