Happy Birthday Joyce!
Today is my good friend Joyce's birthday and Kim has organized a birthday blog hop in honour of her special day. If you don't know Joyce I would be so surprised. She is such a thoughtful crafter and is always leaving such lovely comments on people's blogs. That is how I met Joyce, through commenting.
Over the past couple years we have become closer through commenting, emailing, being shipping buddies, sharing orders and sharing supplies and not a day goes by that we do not connect by email or Facebook. She is truly the sweetest. I hope that you join us in wishing her the happiest of birthdays today by following this blog hop and leaving her some birthday wishes on her blog.

I can say with perfect certainty that as beautiful as this card is on the big screen, it is even prettier in person. I love all the elements you used--they are all some of my favorites--the stitched rectangles, that awesome Lawn Fawn paper, the Winter wisteria paper, and that fabulously stylish birthday sentiment! It looks wonderful with that sun/flower stamped on it, too--I am going to try that myself some time. Thank you so much for your kind words and your friendship, and for your beautiful card and gifts.
