Scrappy Monday + some post birthday sharing..

Papers from Webster 6 by 6 papers (Email me if you wish to purchase one), Frame from Tattered Angels, Rose resin applique (Coming up in my etsy soon!), Tea stained seam binding (my etsy), pin from Jenni Bowlin, mirror charm (selling soon in one of my kits soon) and ticket stubs (selling soon in my etsy store), stamped sentimenets from Papertrey ink
I seem to be more of a cardmaker these days..
Not sure why, making cards give me a bigger sense of satisfaction than a layout.
I love to give cards to people I care about, letting them know how much I love and appreciate them.
So, if I ever give you a card, do know I made the card with you in mind! :)
The roses were showcased before they, like beauty, wither and die.
I love those roses no matter what..
They're the sweetest gifts I receive for my birthday this year..
It's a hush affair this year as I step into my mid twenties..
How time flies..
I feel like I stop growing at 18 though. LOL
I still do the things I did when I was 18.
Still wearing that winnie the pooh pyjamas to sleep,
still making pouty faces whenever I like it,
still a little tactless when speaking to people,
still digging late night suppers and haagen daz ice cream,
still gushing over receiving roses,
 
still behaving like a kid in the candy store when I see beautiful papers, ribbons and anything pretty,
The only thing that changes is age.

Till I see wrinkles, that'll be all.
The age of a woman doesn't mean a thing.  
The best tunes are played on the oldest fiddles.

Happy Post-Birthday, lynn :) Love the quote about a woman's age... it's TOTALLY true about the oldest fiddles playing the best! :) Trust me! I'm a fiddle (string instrument anyway) girl...... and well, I'm not old ANYway. Younger than you for sure ;) ..
