Hi everyone!

Here's another card, that I made when Maya was visiting me a couple of weeks ago...

Cute Card Thursday - Challenge 80 & Happy Birthday Angela

First of all - thank you so much, for all the sweet comments you're leaving me! I'm so grateful for each and everyone of them!

Today's my daugther Angela's 11th birthday!!! Yey!

Though I can't belive how fast time flies...

She won't be celebrating her birthday until next week, because this week her school is having it's fall school break, that means most of her friends are away on vacation.

But of course I've made her a birthday card, that I found out suits this weeks Challenge 80 at Cute Card Thursday. The theme is "A Pine & A Punch", and we're supposed to make a card celebrating the first something. I'm of course celebrating my first born child, with her 11th birthday ;)

So this is the card that I made for Angela - using a stamp, that actually reminds me of her, when she was a little girl ;)

This is a picture of her, the way she looks "today", taken last christmas - still looking like a princess :)

Happy 11th birthday, Angela! Love you!
