Another B'day!

So.......another B'day went by for one of my girls! Carson just turned 11 right after Christmas! It's crazy how quick they grow and change......and it's such a different time from when I was that age. Styles, standards and temptations seem so much worse than in my day. It's tough on these kids and it makes you realize just how much more you have to keep an eye on them. I remember when I, and my folks, felt safe to let me walk to school 2 miles away, or ride my bike to the store, or clamber through the woods for hours at a time. You don't have the same security now.....too much craziness in the world. 

Anyway......lol.....I did make a card for her and I actually dug through my retired stamps looking for my favorite flower to make it with! It's from an older Hostess set called, "Because I Care." Hoping it inspires you to get creative in 2014 with whatever you have at your disposal! :-)

Happy New Year!!
