Happy Cardmaking Day!

I love making cards, especially since I'm current on photos and have no layouts to scrap! LOL (yea, I don't want to hear about that big ole box of OLD photos...) Today gives me a great excuse to be creative in my scrap room and rebuild my stash of cards. Please join me at Sugar and Spice's Cardapalooza for some fun and inspiration! I am co-hosting a fun activity where you may be the lucky recipient of your very own bag of Mint M & Ms! :-D Have a scrappy day!

My "Sweet" card

I pulled apart a Maya Road tin that I altered a couple of years ago. I like it much better now. TFL! :-)

Today is my birthday...

well, not really, but lets just pretend. So, today is my birthday. Ideally, no one will make a big fuss about it. It's not that I don't want to be remembered, but a simple "have a happy birthday" will do. The whole expectation and obligation on everyone elses part makes me feel uncomfortable. I don't like surprises and no presents are expected or wanted. Ideally, I'll spend half the day with friends, perhaps scrappy shopping or some such thing, then I'll spend the other half with family, relaxing poolside while Glen grills steak on the grill. We'll finish dinner off with either a Death by Chocolate cake, or an ice cream cake. I'll finish off the day spending time with all my online friends who couldn't make the shopping trip earlier in the day.

Of course, that just all pretend, because in reality, everyone makes a fuss over me. I'm not allowed to do laundry, or clean, or cook. They'd make me open the presents they tormented over and I almost always cry at the handmade cards.

In either case, I'm loved. :-)
