Sarah's 4th Birthday

Our Inventory Challenge this week is to use a furry friend.  Do you remember when you were a kid and got a stuffed rabbit for Easter?   They were stiff as can be with ears standing straight up!  Mama always got us kids one of those rabbits every Easter and claimed the Easter Bunny brought them. We absolutely adored  those animals!  Now my grand babies have these natural lookin' soft and cuddly stuffed rabbits.  Now I have a confession to make, I think Miss Tilda got into her Mama's makeup and put on too much rouge.  Oh well she thinks she looks purrty.  I think she needs to take lessons from Suzanne Dean in coloring up faces.








It is my youngest granddaughter's 4th birthday and I made this card just for Miss Sarah.  Now she is purrty!  Purrty smart too!!!






My fellow team mates have posted cards using furry friends too and you are invited to take a peek!

I need details, girlfriend...it's fab!! Sarah is so darling...love the pic...and she's surely going to cherish this little treasure from her granny! Two more things...where didja get that image n the inside? And...I love that you used my fave color combo...pink & green!! Hugs. Pat

    Absolutely fabulous, Sandy! You've made a gorgeous card and I love the way you used two different die shapes for Ms. Tilda! When I was a kid we only got chocolate bunnies and I always ate the ears first! How fun! I thing Sarah is going to love this gorgeous card from her grandma! Beautiful work...X0X Barb

    Hi, Sandy! Loo who's talking about getting tired to scroll down:)) It too me forever to get here:).
    Your card is simply a delight for my eyes, Sandy! I love girlie cards and this one is just as adorable as it can get. Great coloring, Sandy , stop whining; she's got just enough red on her lovely face! I adore the way she looks! Also love those DP you've layered in such a clever way and the layered nesties.
    Gorgeous flower too!
    Your sweet Sarah's adorable. I just love fair haired little girls, you lucky grandma!
    Thanks again for the lovely funny story! You should sit and write some stories too. You really have loads of talent and which is more important, something to say!
    hugs, Iulia

    I'm late again Sandy :o(
    I thought you told me you couldn't make a pretty card?
    Well. you were wrong. This one is GORGEOUS inside and out!! What's the matter with Tilda's cheeks - I love them. They look like little girl cheeks who have been out playing - so rosy and healthy. I think you are fooling with us now!
    Seriously - beautiful papers - great colouring and design. Inside is as sweet as can be and won't your granddaughter be thrilled when she opens it up and sees a picture of herself in there!!!
    Hugs, Candy

And then the inside is just so beautiful! Your granddaughter is so pretty! And I love the stamp at the bottom of the page. Looks great!
