Birthday Card Using Conie Fong Birthday Benny and CTMH Paper

Hello friends.  How are you?  I hope everyone is having time to craft.  It is nice to be able to create something for someone you love.  

I am very excited to announce that I am now part of Conie Fong Facebook Design Team.  I wanted to be on her team when she started Conie Fong Art and Design Facebook group last year; but I was already committed to two teams; and couldn't handle any additional teams.  I will be the Facebook Coordinator; which makes me really happy.  We have a fabulous group of ladies on the DT; who are so excited about sharing Conie Fong's fabulous digis.  

 Take time to visit Conie Fong Art and Design Facebook group and click to join.  We would love to have you join us.  She has coupons, specials, challenges with prizes and a chance for her members to receive free digis.  I hope to see all of you there.  

I created this adorable card for my first Conie Fong DT post; using Conie Fong "Birthday Benny" for my Great Grandson who is turning one year old in April. I bought this paper to create a baby card for his birth; but I ended up being there for his birth and never had a chance to send a card.  I decided to get it out and use it for his first birthday.  I just love this little elephant paper from Close To My Heart; which is retired now.
