Under the Wire ~ Yet Again

A bright, cheery birthday card using this week's colors at ColourQ.  I did change the celery green to Wild Wasabi because the lighter green just didn't seem match with the other brighter colors.  I also made the sentiment using this week's Make it Monday technique ~ computer generated sentiments on die cuts. 

 

Make It Monday #59: Computer Generated Sentiments on Die Cuts

Every now and then, you'll likely want to create your own sentiments and personalized messages for your paper crafting projects. Let Erin Lincoln show you how to do that easily and without fuss, while at the same time getting computer generated text perfectly positioned on your die cuts. It's a great technique to add to your crafting arsenal.

Happy 1st Birthday, Autumn ~
 This card is for an extremely special baby that I had the privilege to care for in the NICU last year.  She is a true miracle, and her parents are absolutely the best parents that she could have ever hoped for.  It makes my heart so very happy every time I get updates on her progress.   Because of the HIPAA laws, I cannot go into detail. When I started working in the NICU twenty years ago she would not likely have survived or would have survived with a very grim prognosis.  Autumn, I am so happy that you are celebrating your First Birthday!
