Hi, what mild weather we're having for this time of year...no snow to kill off those nasty bugs! I don't really like the fluffy stuff when you have to venture out but I'll gladly look through my window at the fantastic white covering it displays. Hope that spring arrives soon. Onto my card for a lovely little boy (little no more) as I've subtly placed his age on his trike. What a joy he is to be around and today he is celebrating his first double figure birthday. Image is a digi from some time ago 'mike on a trike' by Artish, lovely to colour with Promarkers, used some offcuts of digi paper, some button die cuts and ofcourse my trusted LOTV Grunge messages that say it so well!!! I've looked out the window and there is a hailstorm outside and children rushing to get home, oh dear...that is weird after my few words earlier.



Challenges are several...Dream valley 2nd, Love to create, Glitter n sparkle, Cupcake Inspirations, Allsorts, Sweet Stampin ..my style at the mo is 'off the card', Digi darla 'B for buttons', Stampin for the weekend, Paula Hollifield 2nd, Crafty Hazelnuts Patterned paper, I Love Promarkers, Paper Pretties, OSAAT, Crafty Sentiments, CRAFT and Craft Little Fairies 'sport...could it be quad racing even though this is a trike?' Hope you all have a fantastic day, bye.

I'm wondering where in the world you live Ardilla .....you've just described the winter that we are having here in the UK too ...... however, we are having a lot of rain and grey days. It's the greyness that I don't like but at least I have wonderful cards like this to brighten my days. Nathan sounds a very lovely young man and I'm sure he will really appreciate this birthday card. It's so full of love, coloured and arranged beautifully and what lovely sentiments.

Thank you for sharing this lovely card in our challenge this week. Ingrid xx ( OSAAT Team )

We've had no snow yet in Northern England but I'm sure it'll appear soon. Instead we have wet, dark and miserable weather, yuk. You've made a super card for Nathan, I'm sure he'll love it. Thanks for joining us at OSAAT. Hazel x
