How many times have you wished someone their happiest birthday ever? I know I have said it, and written in on birthday cards.

It is fun to watch them as they search for bugs and things in the sand and the water.

As a crafter of any type, we end up with left over bits, projects half done, and pieces we were going to use in a project, but changed things up and did not. In one of my posts I mentioned I had gathered up all those bits and pieces to make them into cards. While I did use some bits at my last Girls Get Away Weekend, I still have lots of goodies in my box, so I’m going to try to pull some out on a regular basis and make them into something!
