Happy Friday - Itty Bitty Blog Candy!

Happy Friday!

Pretty day here in Missouri so far, but I think that's supposed to change.

Bah.... don't know about you, but this gal is ready for spring!

I have a couple of things to share today. Be sure to read on to the bottom, as there

is some itty bitty blog candy up for grabs!

First, we had two ladies in our Sunday School class that retired this week - both of them actually retired on Thursday!  We had their little retirement celebration last night, and these are

the cards that I made for them. Both ladies love to garden, so there was a small

gift card for something to plant tucked inside:

The flowers are from Stampendous, and the sentiments are from Crafter's Companion.

Next up is a card that I created for our new grandson's baptism, which will be on Sunday, April 3rd.

We will be making a very quick trip back to Albuquerque for this special event, so a few travel

prayers or well wishes would be appreciated!  This little guy was born on Aunt Melissa's birthday (our daughter), and is being baptized on MY birthday, so what fun, right???

I rarely CASE (copy and steal everything) a card without making a lot of changes. Rarely,

do I CASE a card, and have it come out even remotely looking the same. However....my bestie, Shirley, had made THIS card for her new great grandson last fall, and I just had to make one too!

Here's what I made for little Gilliam:

The dies are Spellbinders and AMuse.

Little Gilliam and I owe Shirley a huge thanks. She came here on Wednesday, loaded with dies, pretty papers, embellishments, and fellowship!  Thanks, dear friend, for not only loaning me your

beautiful crafty tools, but for hand delivering them!

Okay, thanks for peeking at my creations. Now, on to the fun part!

I will be having a birthday on Sunday, and thought it was a perfect time to give away an 'Itty Bitty Blog Candy'!  Since my birthday is on the 3rd day of the month, there will be 3 winners.

There are no strings attached.  You don't have to post my candy on your blog sidebar, you don't have to become a blog follower (although I'd love for you do follow me!!!).  You don't have to promise me your first-born child/grandchild, etc.  

All you need to do is leave a comment on this post. 

That's it!

(If I don't know how to contact you, please include your email address in your comment)

I will draw a winner on Tuesday, April 5th, so be sure to check back mid-day to see if

your name is posted!!!

Have a wonderful weekend - we are off for some baby snuggles!!!

Hugs,

Patti J.
