They say it's your birthday....

Yes, they are correct.  Having passed the old speed limit I am now eligible for a senior discount in some establishments!  lol 

So, the cards are arriving and will be displayed prominently in our home .  I created a unique display using a frame that I found in the clearance department for very little money at Michaels .  I'll share a picture with my cards on it in a few days.

I drilled holes along the edges (not as easy as I thought it would be!) and ran fishing line back and forth to hold the cards.  I die cut the letters using Sizzix dies and adhered them to a strip of black paper.  It can easily be changed to read 'Happy Holidays' or 'Merry Christmas' or whatever.  I can also use it as a drying rack when making layered cards.

To everyone who has sent me birthday wishes...thank you!
