Hap-BEE Birthday!

Hey guys!

I can't believe October is almost over!  This year has FLOWN by!!

Today I have another Birthday card to share.  This is the one I made for my mom this year.  Her birthday was the 7th, so you know I made this a few weeks ago!

 The stamp/image is from Pollycraft (which I am so sad to say that they no longer exist!! Well, the shop closed, I mean.That was one of my all-time favorite stamp companies!!)  I colored it as I was recovering from my last flare, so yeah....not my best work!! BUT my mom's birthday was the following day, and I just HAD to have a card for her!  The paper used if Crete Paper, and the stack name is Party [something] (I think it's Party Time, but don't quote me on that! lol!)  I also added some Prima flowers, black bling, and it was done.  I think it's cute! :)
Here is the inside:  
 The paper is the same as the front, and the sentiment I made by masking off a Happy Birthday stamp.  I masked off the 'birth' part, and added in 'BEE' from a Doodlebug Alpha stamp set. (Oh, and this has nothing to do with my card....but those Doodlebug stamps smell like the Petting Zoo at our Zoo here.  Um.... WEIRD!!!) I'm not saying it smells like manure or anything, just....you know... the animal smell.  Hahahahaha. When I told my mom that, she cracked up and said, "Only YOU Lori, Only you."  But hey, since I was diagnosed with GP, and I'm nauseous every day of my life, smells set it off.  So I recognize smells.  And that one was VERY CLEAR!  It was so strange! I don't think I'll be using those stamps again! Lol!

Wow, long side note.

That's my card (and story) for the day!  I hope you're all having a great weekend!
