Fabulous Fifty!!!

Hello my crafting friends!  I hope y'all had a wonderful weekend.  Mine was busy as always with work and errands that don't get finished during the week but I managed to get a little "me" time too and have started creating some fun things for a baby shower in a couple of weeks. 

Friday evening we went to a surprise party for one of my "oldest" friends.....I have known Sharon since I was 6 when my family started to attend the church where her family attended.  She was turning 50, so welcome to the club, girlfriend.  This is the card I made for her and I think it is one of my favourite cards I have made so far.  Her husband asked me how long it took me to make it and I answered....."Too long.....but it was worth it".  It was worth it to see the look on my friend's face when she opened it and saw all the details.
