HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO JAN MARIE today and many days to come! I was in Denver last summer and was able to meet this wonderful lady in PERSON! That was a real treat because you talk to people on a blog but to meet in person is really special. And by the way...Mike the shipping guy (her husband) is a one super fellow too. So my wish for today to Jan Marie is to have a day of happiness, laughter, relaxation, and so much fun you can't see straight!
My card uses Flourishes Cherry Blossoms, Humming Along for the sweet little hummingbird (my very favorite of all birds) and the sweet phrase is from Spring is Sprung.
To create this little number, I just stamped and then colored using my favorite watercolor pencils. The die shape is a Spellbinders Nestabilities Labels Two. A little snippet of ribbon and done! Here's a close up of the sentiment....
I was told that Flourishes is having a special sale today for Jan's big day. Today and Tomorrow all Copic Markers will be on sale at 15% off. What a bargain! Just use the code COPIC15 when you check out. I was honored to join some of the best in the design world bunch today, so you'll have to stop over and see what these fine ladies created for Jan's Birthday Blog Hop!

Hugs~
I love this long and lean card mom! This is just stunning and even prettier in person!
Pat, I think this is my first visit to your blog and I picked up on your wonderful personality and humor immediately (great lol moment when I read your Maxine cartoon)! But I digress...we're here to let you know your card for Jan Marie is BEAUTIFUL and she will love it!
Julies mom...how fun to "meet" you:) I absolutely LOVE your card. You`ve colored those cherry blossoms beautifully, and the little hummingbird is just perfect.
Yvonne.
I love the little hummingbird in there Pat! And the cherry blossoms are one of my all time favourite sets too. Beautiful card!
Wonderful card, Pat! I love the size, your coloring and your sentiment placement.
Hugs and smiles
Amazing idea!!! I hope you don't mind, but I Love it so much I may "borrow" it sometime ;) Gorgeous colors and coloring too! Wonderful card and technique :)
Pat your card is so PRETTY!!
Love your long narrow card and that hummingbird is just the cuties little thing. I had to look twice to catch him. Nice job on the color.
This card is beautiful. I am truly honored that you joined the hop today. You too are a very special lady in my book.
Hugs,
Jan Marie
Love the tall card and the design you made with the cherry blossoms. Beautifully done, Pat!
This is Exquisite!! Your coloring is beautiful and I like the longer card. Your hummingbird looks real.
I noticed that darling corner bookmark, too. CUTE! So JC Penney and it's no more sales, just lower prices all the time is a good thing? I like their dress pants, so I may need to go shopping one of these days. Between you and Julie, I'm getting good ideas for spending my money! Take care.
Beautiful card!
Such a precious card, Pat. Nice to see a different shape for a card. You did an awesome job of coloring these cherry blossoms and, oh, I almost missed the darling little hummingbird. patnbobcuddy at gmail dot com
Gorgeous, Pat! I love those cherry blossoms! Just a fabulous design!
Pat this is so pretty. I like the long and tall cards and this is no exception. Great job
So pretty Pat! That hummingbird looks so darling! Have a great weekend!
Gorgeous Pat!!! I just love the long card and your beautiful stamping and colouring right down the length!! The sentiment is just perfect!!!
Pat, your long card is GORGEOUS! Love it and I'm so happy you had a chance to hop along :) !!! Hugs ~S~
very pretty card. Love that stamp set.
Beautiful! I love that little hummingbird in the blossoms!
This is so pretty! Beautiful coloring and I love the long card!
This is super fabulous Pat!! I love how you stamped the image and coloring! The humming bird is such a nice addition!
Pat, this is just the nines in cyberspace grinds to have a shoe ad within crafting comments after the 'two word prove you are not a robot' drill! LOL! Someone in security has sole humor, or something stringing along allowing outside blog comments.
Now, down to the business of a bit country and and a bit rock 'n roll giving Jan Marie a happy birthday card she'll be pleased to share and remember....maybe even case. Those pinks you chose dance with gaity presenting sentiments so true to the receiver from you the cheerful sender. Lean and lovely! Just like any cowgirl up card can be! Hope your grey to sunny first day of daylight savings time morning is warming past fifty degrees. Ours has become windy! Have to bring in warm air some how.
Keep Looking UP!
