I sure was thrilled to be able to host a 108th birthday tea party today! WOW! A special birthday like that deserves a special card. Which is why I was all over the place trying to decide what to make for Louise. I started off with the righthand column of pop-up, flowers, and the number 108, but then I decided I wanted to do the middle row of teacher/school, texture, and flowers. Then I switched to large image, bold color, and pop-up. And ultimately, I hit almost every spot on the "Bingo" card. To represent Louise's teaching career, I grabbed this Colorbok DP with red, yellow, and green apples on it. But since I was combining this challenge with Barbara's fabulous and fun colors, I tried coloring over the red apple with a dark pink and the green apples with a more teal color. But the red was still too red, so I added some texture with my new PFS paper glaze--love it! I didn't quite get scripture in there, but I did choose this fun mason jar bouquet digi with "Jesus Loves You" on it. Plus I get dessert for the color challenge. After I had dessert, I still wanted cookies, so I stamped out this fun PTI BINGO card and tucked it behind the flowers. Lastly, I added a glittery 108 and some Stickles and Nuvo drops for even more texture. I hope Louise enjoys her special personalized card and can feel the love that was put into it.

Jen, there's no doubt in my mind that Louise will feel the love you put into your personalized card! She will have so many great details to ponder and enjoy. I love all the bright colors and textures and know she will, too! Thank you for sending this very special birthday greeting to Louise!
