Belated Birthday Post

I had full intentions of posting all week (even wrote down specific posts for each day!) but time slipped away from me and before I knew it..its already Friday {late} afternoon!! We have been crazy busy around the farm and the last few days we have been working steady on our well to get our water system back up to par. For the last few years the pump hadn't been working properly and would have to be manually turned on every couple of days to ensure we had enough water for showering, laundry etc {we use a distiller for our drinking/cooking water}. This shouldn't have to happen as the pump should be filling automatically, so, fingers crossed we get this work done!!

Other than that, the main reason I wanted to come on here today is because my mom's birthday was this past Tuesday and I never got her post up to wish her a big happy 29th Birthday!! She later pointed out to me that she has a 31 year old son so couldn't possibly be 29 and was happy with 49...so, Happy 49th Birthday Memoo!!

We fought like cats & dogs when I was growing up but I always knew you were the most amazing mom a girl could ask for. You were and always will be there for me, my biggest advocate and most loving supporter. I am so grateful for everything you do for me {and Adam} and I know you will be an amazing grandma some day (no, this is not a hint!!) I am so happy I was able to be there on your birthday and to celebrate with our family this past weekend. I'll love you forever and I miss you so much!!

 Happy Belated Birthday!!

A Shabby Happy Birthday

Happy Saturday everyone!!

I have a busy weekend ahead of me, today is my little niece's 2nd Birthday party..I for the life of me cannot comprehend how she could possibly be this big already, but nevertheless, it's here already! So I made her a super cute Mickey Mouse card that I will share with you next week along with photo's of my big girl. But after the party I'm also off to the farm to visit my DBF and I couldn't be more excited! Its been 2 weeks since I've seen him and all his family will be there this weekend too, I just love them all to pieces :) And, as it is his mom's birthday next Wednesday I decided to make her a card! I am in love with all things shabby and beautiful and I have to say I'm very excited about this card..everything just seems to work!!



I used Kraft cardstock for my base, Prima DP, a vintage image from my stash, some glitter chipboard from K&Company and of course a beautiful rose from Prima as well..



Joanne really loves flowers so I hope I hit the nail on the head with this card! I hope she loves it :) Its shabby,vintage & romantic. Okay, I'm off to get ready for the weekend! Have a great weekend everyoe and happy crafting!!
