Happy birthday rose card made using the Art Philosphy cartridge.

Hello, friends!

I hope you all had a wonderful Mother's Day! Mine was not as good as it was last year. I'm really not sure why, but I just felt very melancholy and could not shake it. I need a re-do!

I want to remind all of you that I have a F.A.Q section at the top of the blog. If you have a question for me that or wonder why I do the things I do, I encourage you to take a look at that section. Recently, I have had many questions via email that are answered in my FAQ section. I am sure there are some of you who have the same questions, but have just not asked. If you have any questions that are not answered, please email me so I can answer them and maybe add them to my FAQ page. 

For today's Bitten By the Bug 2 challenge, the theme is May flowers! Can you tell it was my turn to choose to theme *wink*? I think I will look for any excuse to make something with flowers on it.

My card is made using the Art Philosophy and the Joyful Birthday stamp set. I find that when I craft with flowers I do not toil over the project as much. I suppose it is because I can make the project as girly as I like. I wish I found masculine projects this easy!
