A Fishy Happy Birthday

Smiley from millan.net all! Who is happy it is Saturday? I am! We are supposed to get some snow today but the last time they said that we got none, zip, zero, zilch. I wouldn't mind a little bit, of course I don't have to shovel it so maybe I should just be quiet, huh? LOL!

Today's card is a birthday card that I made for a friend of ours. Papa Al loves to fish so it is a no brainer to make a card of some sort with a fish on it. I tried to make the image look like a salmon but I had a hard time with it this year. Anyway, this image is from Designed2Delight, whose images I love. The paper is from a Taylored Expressions key ingredient kit and the fishing hooks are from my garage and were quite painful to my fingers trying to get them to stay down. LOL! This card layout is again one of Carly's Sketches (have you checked them out yet?).

Alright, I have tons of crafting to get done this weekend so I can get gifts in the mail on Monday. Have a wonderful day and I'll see you tomorrow for my Sunday share!

Here is a wonderful verse for you today. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. Romans 12:12 How might this verse apply to your life today or even this week?
