Beary Happy Birthay
Hi friends! Today I have another installment of my obsession with no-line pencil coloring, using the Friends Furever set from My Favorite Things. I used the sketch from the MFT sketch challenge #376 (link at end) to create this card.

Hoppy Hoppy Birthday!
When I was a kid living outside of Buffalo, NY, we had an in-ground pool, and every summer, my dad had a "game" with a local frog. He'd go out to the pool, find the frog swimming around, scoop him out and throw him over the fence. The next day, the frog would be back, … Continue reading Hoppy Hoppy Birthday!
MFT: Otterly Great Birthday
Hi friends! How about some otters today? (I would like some otters every day, please and thank you!) I have a birthday card using the Otterly Love You set from My Favorite Things.

rainbows and stars
I made this card last month mostly to try out a birthday gift (the star garland from Reverse Confetti). (Side note: I've been making a lot of birthday cards lately and can't seem to part with any of them. Is that a problem?) This card was very simple to make. Just a couple of die … Continue reading rainbows and stars
