Lemonade Be Yourself

I had a wonderful birthday.  It started with an early morning dance with my husband to Birthday by the Beatles.  My co-workers baked me a delicious apple cake, gave me fun cards, and bought me lunch.  My husband took me to my favorite sushi restaurant for supper.  I talked to my family on the phone and got lots of birthday wishes from friends.  And, I finished the day by spending time in my studio making this whimsical card that makes me smile … a fabulous day.

The challenge at the Hero Arts Blog is to use paper piecing.  I paired the fun Be Yourself set with papers from Basic Grey's Lemonade Collection.  I sponged a little aquamarine at the bottom to ground my flowers and bird.  I finished with a black pearl for the eye.

  1. Awwww, I missed your birthday. It sounds like you indeed had a fabulous day. And your happy birdy card is really cute (OK–bad pun I know–I’m not a morning person). 🙂
