HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRETT!!!
Happy Wednesday everyone!!! It’s my son Brett’s 4th birthday today!!! Yes, close together..I was SO relieved when I had Austin and realized they would be in different weeks!
We are going to a Dinosaur Museum, and anything else he wants to do. There’s also a new trampoline waiting for him out back!
Should be a super fun day! Here’s a pic of my big boy!
One of my favorite things to do is color floral images in browns! I like to do things a little different lol. I had the song Amarillo by Morning (by George Straight) in my head the other day so I wanted to use my Amarillo paper by Cosmo Cricket. lol. But when I was looking through my paper the Wanted line my Cosmo Cicket struck my fancy! Then I thought it would be fun to pair it up with one of my Anna stamps! Sort of unexpected pair, but that’s what I like to do best!
Here it is! You all have a great GREAT day!!

WOW, what a gorgeous child! Happy birthday, Brett.
Beautiful card too. The “Anna stamp” goes surprisingly well with that paper. But then, not much doesn’t go well with that paper. LOL And I just love that design!
PS Sorry for the long absence! I still don’t have a computer at home but I’m going to grab a few computer moments here at work and call it my break.

WOW I am just starting to get in touch with my “brown” use in cards and I am loving it! Your card is just beautiful…and coloring the flowers brown is a very unique and stunning touch.
Happy birthday to your darling! And what a scrumptious card!
Love your idea of coloring the flowers brown. Makes for a very rich-looking card.
Happy Birthday, Brett!!!!! (Awwwww….) Gorgeous card, Lindsey!!! And guess what I’m listening to now? You know!!!! LOL.

Oh, I’m drooling over the card, so pretty!!
Terrific…the mix of Crate Papers is beautiful!

Lindser - you are so blessed to have such adorable little guys. What a fun birthday day! Your card is super gorgeous. Love the browns - sort of like looking at a photograph in sepia. Love what you did with all elements. Have a piece of cake for me and give those boys a hug!
Happy Birthday Brett! What a cutie he is! I so remember my son loving dinosaurs only he was about 7 when he started that phase. He’s 21 now and I still have all his dinosaur’s, the compound from Jurassic Park 1, the vehicles from JP2 as well as all the people and dinosaurs. lol See what you have to look forward to. Hope the b’day is a great one.
What a cutie!! Happy Birthday! That a fabulous looking card in brown!! Love the bkgrd you made for it!

OMG I LOVE this! Just soooooo gorgeous!
What a handsome feller! Oh, my! The older he gets, the more hearts he’s going to break–watch out! Every day is an adventure with a little one when you think of how new everything is to them. It’s the end of the day now and I’ll bet Brett fell asleep exhausted from all his fun birthday activities. I know you had a blast, too! Happy birthday, Brett! And, Lindsey, your card is a masterpiece! Love the browns with the subtle touches of color. The countrified bucket of flowers goes just right with this paper. Oh, there’s so many wonderful papers to be had! I want them all!
I *LOVE* THIS!!!
You rock my stampin’ WORLD!! =)
Lindsey, This is drop dead gorgeous!! I love the mix of papers
