Happy Birthday To Me!!!

Monday, May 17th and Happy Birthday To Me!!!  What a wonderful  birthday it is!  I woke up last night to do my nightly blog crawl (at 12a.m. it's a crawl not a hop) and I found out that my card from last week was recognized on 2 different websites.  It was one of the top 3 at Die Cut Dreams  and it got an honorable mention at The Shabby Tea Room!  Hopefully this is a sign of things to come!  This was the very first time one of my cards was noticed in a challenge (actually 2).  It's very exciting and now my new goal is to actually win one!
 
Which brings me to my next order of business.  The card I made last night was so much fun!  There were two challenges I was working towards and this card is for both of them.  The first one is the Die Cut Dreams Challenge.  Their challenge this week was to use lace.  Not a problem, I LOVE LACE! The second challenge was from Card Patterns and it was their sketch # 64.
 









I toiled over this card for a couple of hours to get it just right and I'm very happy with the way it turned out!  I hope you like it too!  The sentiment is just perfect too, I am LOVING this wonderful world of cardmaking!  Have a wonderful day, I'm already having one!
