Stars and Stripes Birthday

Hello Lovelies,
I have a card that I want to share with you today.  I also want to thank each of you that came by to visit me yesterday, even though I had no new post. Thanks so much!  After church, I was exhausted and didn't really feel like spending any time in my craftroom but I did attempt to catch up with posting comments to my favorite blogs...my special friends of course. Thanks for visiting me.
Hugs,
~Shen

  10. I am so excited you entered this challenge. Firstly, because you became a follower of mine a little while back, and blogger was telling me you didn't have a blog to follow back... but here you are! Yay! Following you too. Love your card. The pen dotting looks fantastic! It makes you look right over the card. Plus the faux stitching around the outside frames it all. LOVE the party hat. Chloe - Getting Cricky Guest Designer
