87 YEARS YOUNG!

Happy Sunday everyone! Today I would like to share a layout featuring my Mom. We recently had a family birthday party to celebrate her 87th Birthday!


My husband every year for my Mom's birthday and Christmas buys my Mom a crown to wear on her special days!

Here are some closeups....


I used two types of Thickers - Celebrate and Amy Tangerine -Lovely for my title. I machine stitched through them to hold them in place.


My flower cluster with flowers from Prima, Petaloo and Studio 112. The Adore stamp is a new one I picked up from STAKZ. The two banners and heart are from the Thickers - Celebrate.
A little stamping and spritzing to finish things off!


My papers are Fancy Pants - Trendsetter and October Afternoon. The doily is Bo-Bunny.

I used the sketch from Let's Get Sketchy- Week 2 for inspiration.

I was also inspired by the colours on The Studio Challenges Mood Board.




Enjoy your day! Stay Crafty!!!
