Oh, I didn't think I would get to showcase another delightful picture Shelby drew for me so SOON....but here we are!!!
snagged me with the title first...because I think my Shelby's character is
DELIGHTFULLY RANDOM.
Isn't he a hoot????!!!
Shelby told me she just loves the way I colored her crab...
BLESS HER SWEET HEART. ;)
I decided to showcase him on her birthday card...yes, my
Shelby is turning 13 in a couple of days!!!!
WHERE DOES THE TIME GO???!!!
13 Things I love about my Shel:
1. Her ENORMOUS heart
2. Her sweet smile
3. Her contagious laugh
4. Her contagious cry (if her heart breaks....EVERYONE'S heart breaks)
5. Her gentle spirit
6. Her fashion sense (she can wear ANYTHING and make it look good)
7. Her dark, soulful eyes that meet with EVERYONE that crosses her path
8. Her ability to see humor in everything
9. Her gift in remembering EVERYONE'S name
10. Her patience with others
11. Her perfect hair (I know, it seems shallow...but girlfriend doesn't need a flat iron...perfect generation to be born in!)
12. Her graceful gift of dance
13. Her creative mind
I could go on and on....but I need to let you go....
Thanks for helping me celebrate Shelby! ;)
A new technique I used...

It's very subtle..but I learned it at

There is a video to learn the technique...I need to do it again sometime..it didn't come out as frosty as I would have liked...maybe a darker paper,perhaps?
CHALLENGES:
(I was inspired to SEW on this card...first time ever after seeing the thread!! The title got me first, though..and I incorporated the red/poppy in my card)
