Daisy Birthday Wishes

Hello Blogger Friends! Thanks for taking the time to stop and visit with The Charmed Life Blog today. 

It's been some time since I have posted on my Blog. The month of August was a busy month for me. My hubby's garden harvest is coming in and I have been spending my days in the kitchen processing tomatoes for caning. I also roasted a bunch of tomatoes and froze those. And his banana peppers seem to be on overdrive (lol)!! But I am stuffing those and have my fridge freezer full of them. We have some friends and family that love my stuffed banana peppers, so I have taken care of them as well. 

I will be grateful when the winter months roll around and we can enjoy some summer goodness, but it definitely is a lot of work. 

Then my sister lost her husband, and I have been trying to spend as much time with her as I can.  Walking through grief is never easy. They were high school sweethearts and married for 50 years. But she is taking one day at a time and her son and daughter are by her side as well. 

Now onto my card for today. This one I created for a color challenge on Splitcoaststampers. Our color trio was fresh freesia, pumpkin and melon mambo. Optional was to use your favorite green. I like all of the Stampin' Up greens but for this card I chose granny apple green.

For my birthday card, I used the Stitched Daisy die from CottageCutz. I cut the daisies and pot in the challenge colors.

I cut an arch in the white embossed background using a Spellbinders die. The embossing is done with an old Cuttlebug folder. The die cut birthday is a die from Scrapbook & Cards. 

Stamped my sentiment and that is from a Spellbinders set. I added a few sequins to complete my card.

Well, that's it for me for this post. So, until next time......God bless.
