October Birthdays

My youngest neice will be 1 on Halloween. She has lady bug theme on all her bedroom furnishings and a lot of her clothes. Her Mom got me to make her a grocery cart cover with lady bugs on it and I designed this card from the fabric.


One of my grand-neices will be 5 on the 11th. The cupcake design is new with added sparkle to the frosting. I added the candles from a magazine picture.


My nephew will be 21 on the 2nd. He is studying to be a coach.


My neice will be 20 on the 19th. I have been waiting for the oppurtunity to use this paper...I love the pattern and colors. I "traced" the tulips on velum from an embroidery pattern.


One of my sisters, the mother of the 2 above, will be celebrating her birthday on the 25th. This is another colorblocking example. She gave me a flower press for my birthday this year so I used it for her card . The flower in the center was plucked from my bed and pressed.


This is her gift. I made a fabric cover for a blank journal and a bookmark with more pressed flowers.
