Happy Birthday with Black and White

Good Evening Crafty Friends,

The kids went to Busch Gardens today with the grandparents, so my husband and I started a little holiday shopping. It sure is nice when you can cross a few names off "the list". Since it was still early when we returned home, I decided to check out the newest challenges. Wow! There are some great sketches and themes this week. I made a list of a few that I found appealing and got busy. I know there are more, but I will add them later tonight.
I left the balloon blank so it could be personalized. I can either add a name or the age of the recipient.





Materials:
Making Memories ~ Black and White Slice paper pad
Simply Charmed cartridge ~ balloon ~ p. 75 ~ cut at 3 1/2"
yellow cardstock
golden yellow lace
button
black and yellow flowers
happy birthday stamp by Inkadinkado

Challenges:
Craft Your Days Away ~ Embellishment BINGO (lace, flowers, and buttons)

I hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend and can find time to craft too.
Georgiana
