Happy 9th birthday.

Sunday Sunday Sunday

I gotta tell you that I have no idea who this card is for - LOL I don't know anyone turning 9. Maybe for my son for next year? It wasn't going to be a 9th birthday card until I decided to have that strip of paper hanging off the side and then highlighting the 9.

I've got patterned papers from Sassafras, that fun arrow is from Cosmo Cricket and that big ol' bow is made from ribbon from Practicing Creativity Designs. My stamp - oh that's a sad story. I'm pretty new to Hero Arts stamps and I love this birthday set that I got of theirs and this happy birthday in like typewriter font is my fave. It busted! Broke like I hadn't even had it long either...frustrating. I kept the part that said birthday though - ha....figured I'd still get some use out of it like I did here :)

Geez, I do that too. But usually the cards are made to fit a challenge. I end up donating cards I know I won't use.

The card is beautiful - as all your cards always are! And the out-of-the-box/arrow combo is awesome.

This card is fantastic. With a bow that size it's like the card is the present. You'll know someone turning 9 eventually.

Love the bright colors and the "unique" sentiment. I guess you could also use it for someone born on the 9th of the month!

That bow is gorgeous. Like enough to make me wish I was turning nine ;) What a bummer about your birthday stamp. I'm glad to see you're still able to put it to good use, though ;)
