Celebrate every day! I just recently had a birthday. It was pretty much just an ordinary day (although all my kids phoned to wish me a happy birthday) but that is okay that there was no big celebration. I'm not really into parties and pizzaz and besides it is always a good reminder to celebrate every day. God has given me such a great life of happiness and health. Each day should be a celebration.
I used the phrase "celebrate life" from a Verve set "Joyful Blooms". The flowers are from that set also.
The colors are a little off in the photo but after a dozen different settings and placements around the house, this one was the closest to true.
Other things I used: a piece of my new vine ribbon, the Verve Banner die cut, a few brads and gems.
Laurie Schmidlin's cards here were my inspiration.

Verve - use Verve
