It's a Twisted Birthday!

Hi there, friends :)  I'm under the weather here -- ended up feeling really sick Monday mid-morning and waited for it to pass ...  went about my day feeling so fatigued and blah and now my throat is on fire, my bones ache and my nose is half stuffed up, half running - lol!  I think this comes as part of the 'crash and burn' from being so diligent in taking care of everyone but myself - eek!  So this will a short post but long enough to tell you that there is a new Twisted Tuesday Challenge this week!  


This week we are all about Birthdays
 The twist is to use ribbon!


In honor of Melina's birthday, owner and creator behind the Twisted Tuesday Challenge blog, we're celebrating with a creation of a card/project showing birthdays.  For my card, I am actually using the card that didn't make it to my blog when my husband was in the hospital - blogger did not launch (doh!) so it never showed up here, but lucky me, I can show you now - YAY!  I actually LOVED how it came out.  CAS is not normally my style and this one just fell right into place.  For the ribbon, I went with twine.  The 3 balloons are dies from Cottage Cutz and I propped them up with 3D dots for added dimension.
That's it for tonight, I'm climbing back into bed with my blankies, pillows, Nyquil, two crazy pups down my my side wondering why mommy won't get up and play, and 4 kids that are either running amuck or under daddy's watchful eye, lol!  Guess I'll find out tomorrow when I leave the confines of my snuggly bed :)


You can link up your cards here to the challenge blog!







Big hugs,
Bigger Blessings
 and I'll be by to visit you all soon!!
Much love!
~Kelly
