On my 35th birthday, I find myself looking back through the years ...
After careful reflection, the question that comes to mind is: What was I thinking in high school with that hair? Well, all I can say is that was the "in thing" back then. LOL. I'm now much more comfortable in a short "do".
Today, I want to share with you a few birthday cards I received from friends who are also talented card makers. (There are a few more I have to photograph, so if you don't see yours here - don't feel left out).
Thank you both for making my day extra special. What girl doesn't love getting special deliveries in the mail?
I plan to spend the day with my family and am hoping to also get some "me time" for stamping. So, be on the look out - I should have some new projects to share with you soon!

From Kim L. I so envy her watercoloring skills!
From Linda C. Love the delicate details on this card.

Happy Belated Birthday, Kris! Your pictures were fun to look at; the styles during your high school years were certainly different than mine [of course, I'm 28 years older than you!]. I hope you enjoyed your big day!

Love the big hair era and am charmed by your little girl picture, too. You get better every year! Hugs and Happy Birthday, Auntie.

Happy Birthday, Kris! I hope that you have lots of "me" time! By the way, I love your "big hair"! You have aged well, my dear! You still have the most beautiful eyes!

Happy Birthday Kris! I'm a *little* older, but I do remember a high school full of perms, on both guys and girls!

Kris, Happy, Happy Birthday! Don't we ALL have these sorts of photos in our collections? I admire you putting them out there! I might do the same, as my next birthday ends in an -0 !!

Kris - I too love the parade of pictures from your past! Hey, I'm sure your hairstyle in high school was the happening thing. Too funny! Farrah Fawcett hair was popular when I was in high school! What can I say?!! Happy Belated Birthday! Hope you had a great day and got to do some of that stamping you were hoping to do!

Kris - Happy belated birthday. You are still just a youngster! Hey, on humid days my hair will still do the big hair thing!
Hope you had a great day.
