Happy Birthday Kathy!

Today is sweet Kathy Stack-Page's birthday, and the La-La Land Crafts DT is holding a special blog hop in her honor. We each chose one of Kathy's lovely creations to CASE. Wow, was it ever hard to pick... everything she does is beautiful. No way can I come close to emulating her watercoloring. She also does the most amazing work with distress inks.

I chose to CASE this beautiful card from Kathy's November 22, 2009 post. My image was a bit too large to include a sentiment, but I stayed pretty true to her design, right down to daubing the edges with white acrylic paint.

I used the new Sugar Rush DP from Basic Grey, and this adorable Tea Party digi image from Mo Manning. It struck me as an image Kathy would like. I hope so!

Happy Birthday dear Kathy! I wish you all the best today and always!

I hope you'll jump over to the La-La Land Crafts Blog to see who else is hopping today for Kathy's birthday. No doubt, there's lots of great eye candy in store!

Have a wonderful day!
