Happy Saturday!!
I wanted to jump on and share this card today to make sure I got it in in time for The Muse Challenge this week.
When I saw the challenge, I knew I wanted to create something with the colors and Watercolors. So I watercolored the paper with greens and yellow and let them sit. It wasn’t until I was looking for the right die that I decided that I would make it a birthday card. I used PTI’s Big Number Dies to cut out the numbers and I just grabbed a sentiment set for this one.
My oldest baby is turning 16 on Monday. Insert sad eyes!! He’s currently on the other side of the state Skiing with a youth group trip.
I also placed an order for some new Bossy Joscie stamps this last week and they came yesterday.
I had the top one that you see in my photos that I use on the back of my cards. I had some stamps with just my name on them for addresses, but I decided to get one that was for all of us.
Also, I had previously seen this Hashtag stamp via Stampin Up! and when I saw that Joscie had it, I added it to my cart. Unfortunately, SU’s stamps were back ordered right away. So I am happy that I picked this one up. And Joscie had three different styles to choose from.

I added this to the back of David’s card, and plan to on my my 2016 birthday cards!!
Finally, you may be wondering what the heck turkey’s have to do with the heading.
My dad got me three lil Bronze Turkey’s yesterday. It was totally last minute, he said he wanted some, so I said grab me some too. We had some a few years back and they are so friendly and fun to watch. I’m excited. So they are currently living in this cardboard “house” (McKinley had previously decorated it for her dolls.) in our guest bath off the mud room.
I will keep you posted on them as they grow and move out to the Chicken House.
Enjoy your Saturday!!
Cool stamps, a fun card and those turkey babies - ADORABLE!!!
