Birthday Festivities

"The more you praise and
celebrate your life, the more
there is in life to celebrate."
           ~Oprah Winfrey

   This past weekend was my birthday and I had a wonderful time with family and friends! It was busy and special and I definitely won't forget it! I certainly felt very loved. This has been the year of tea parties. I had a very small get together to celebrate with two of my very best friends - the owners of the antique store where I used to work! We had all kinds of goodies (of course!) and lots of laughs.
   I was very spoiled this birthday - my sister bought me the Fujifilm instal mini camera in pink! I love the little polaroid-type photos that it takes. I am going to have so much fun with it! She also drew me the gorgeous picture of the pink haired girl. I've taken a few pictures including this birthday cake design I made for the tea party. 

I made the happy birthday banner. :) I'm addicted to my newest discovery - gold glass shard glitter! 

My party was 'Paris' themed...

My sister's beautiful masterpiece. I love it!

I adore Bella Pilar greeting cards! Her art is so beautiful!
