    Good Morning from me the birthday girl I slept in this morning. Only to wake up to a wonderful party.


    Awesome job Carri, I love when you do these cards the true artist comes out in you. and I can tell you have transported yourself into a whole new dimension. I love how you colored in the King of clubs and the colors are so soft I really like how you distressed the ticket, it looks like it has really been around a long time.
    Oh yes and I see your signature liquid pearls.

    Thank you for being part of my Birthday Blog hop. It really means a lot to me. Have a great day
    hugs,DIANA L.
