Jennifer's birthday and Just Tracys Crafts Challenge

Hey there everyone - it's Tuesday, man this week has gone by so fast already :)  I was catching up a little bit (I'm slowly but surely getting there) and came across Just Tracys Crafts Challenge blog again and saw that they have a new Design Team member and when I saw her name, was so excited.  Karen, who is the sweetest lady, was asked to be on the DT when another friend Claire left at the end of July.  I have known Karen, Jill, Linda and Claire for a few years now and it has been such a pleasure getting to know them and look forward to many more happy years with them all.   CONGRATULATIONS Karen.
I am using their theme challenge "Happy Birthday", which is perfect for me this week because as I have mentioned already, I have tons of birthday cards I need to make this month and picked this one to submit for the challenge.  I made this card for my great friend Jennifer; we have known each other for almost 9 years now and I am so blessed to have her in my life and thank God for her daily.  Jennifer, I hope you had an awesome birthday and I love you !!!  

I really enjoyed doing this card and it was the first time I used Kimberly Crawford's Mint Motif Cake Shoppe I and II sets I purchased months ago from i{heart}papers (they are FABULOUS).  I CASED this card, but am so sad that I can't remember from whom - I have to do better about writing these things down when I am going through them.

I'm going to work on more cards tonight and surprisingly, they aren't birthday cards :)

Enjoy your evening.
