Sketch 43 - Happy Birthday

I gave this card to my dear friend Khalilah. I made the card 5.5 inches by 5.5 inches and used some Basic Grey Pyrus. I sprayed the chipboard with brown and irridescent maya mist. I added a Jenni Bowlin butterfly and two Queen & Co. Brads.  I had to cut it down to get it fit into envelope. I really like how it turned out.  Do you want to try your hand at the sketch?  Oh you do! Ok so head on over to Twisted Sketches to look at the Sketch and see what other Twisted Sisters have come up!

I got a chance to see Khalilah over the weekend for her birthday.  We had a blast! She has a natural hair product shop.  If you are natural or if just want to use natural products on your hair check out her website Curly Locs Shop. She also has  Natural skin care products, hair accessories, jewelry and more. So Check her out! head on over to Curly Locs Shop!

Merry Christmas...Happy New Year!

Pray you all had a wonderful Christmas and remembered the reason why we celebrate.

"Jesus is the reason we have this special day
Sometimes in this season true meaning goes astray
Of How in a manger the son of God was born
O Come let us adore the Lord
Let's bring Our gifts before the Lord
Son of God called Immanuel
Called Immanuel" Written By Jacki Cordery
