I'm right in the middle of a lot of things right now... it seems like life is moving at the speed of light and my hamster wheel is having a bit of a time keeping up. Can you relate? Anyhow, right at the forefront this week is prep for Verve's holiday release this Friday. So when I was able to sneak in a few minutes in the studio between breathing treatments for my sick boys, I gravitated to a sentiment from one of this week's new releases that was on my desk. I love this sentiment and thought it would also make a beautiful birthday card, so that's where I went with it. And that means you get a teeny sneak peek at the title sentiment from a new Christmas set releasing on Friday. :)
The papers are also from a Christmas collection, since that's the state of my stamp room right now, but I think I made them work, just adding a bit of gesso where needed to obscure a partial Christmas tree image. Three circle dies, a pennant and a butterfly finished things off.
Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you'll swing back by on Wednesday for the first day of Spotlights on our new release! And if you've got a little time, head on over to the Mojo Monday blog for a look at all the other Mojo designers take on this week's sketch.

Lovely soft colours with the pop of pink. My hamster wheel is smoking as it has been running full tilt all year - craziness!! Busiest year ever - already looking forward to Christmas vacation LOL! Hang in there ((hugs))!!!
I love this sentiment and the fact it means new Verve is on the way! I am looking for the hidden Christmas tree, but would never have suspected these papers weren't meant for your gorgeous birthday card. Hope your boys are well soon. That always takes a lot off a mom's mind.
Finally had a chance to play with the pots/sentiments....love! This sentiment does work for Christmas... Birthday...love it too!! Gorgeous card!
