Day 224: Marcia's Birthday

Here's the card I made for Marcia's birthday (one of my coworkers). She turned the big 2-5! Birthdays are always crappy out here, but Vince and I tried to help a bit by baking a batch of chocolate cupcakes complete with creme cheese frosting. It was from a box, but after being here for over seven months now even boxed mix is a little bit of heaven.This picture was taken during the sun's peak on a big piece of concrete by a bunker. It's the best I could do. I actually made two other cards as well. (Can you believe it?!) I even had the Making Memories Slice sent out here. I love it! It came with one design card, but I couldn't resist ordering another one. I also ordered a couple of border punches and the Basic Grey Lemonade collection. I'm addicted to the 6x6 pads now. I really want the Eva pad along with the buttons and brads next. Mmm... my mouth is watering!

Where can I send the Eva packet so that it will get to you. I am so inspired by your blog, I want send the package to you. My gift. I send things to Kentucky, but I want this to go to you...maybe if I send it to Ky to be sent to you if you can not give me your address. I am a Marine Mother and want to help another soldier. Thanks for the wonderful blog...happy birthday to your doggie, too...Liz
