Hello friends! How is everyone? We actually had rain last night; which was a pleasant surprise. I love hearing the rain falling on the house. It is such a pleasant sound. We had thunder and lightening as well; which is also rare in Southern CA. LOL!
I haven't felt good for several days and haven't been sleeping. That has worked to my advantage with having some time to create. LOL! I needed to get this birthday card created for my great grandson who is turning one year old the first part of November.
I colored this adorable new image - Conie Fong "Just Like Daddy" and decided to use a lot of different dies to make a fun card for a one year old. I think we really make the cards for their parents; but I am sure they will enjoy it too. LOL!
The colors are actually prettier in person; but not much I can do about it when the photo's just don't look as good.
