Happy Birthday, Taylor!!


Happy Saturday everyone!   A few of Taylor Van Bruggen's friends have gotten together to throw her a virtual birthday party!  There are so many incredible women participating in Taylor's Birthday Blog Hop and I have a list of them at the end of this post!

Well, Taylor, it has truly been a pleasure to actually get to know one of my stamping idols!!  I completely enjoy being a part of your team and I hope you have a FANTASTIC birthday!  Oh, and my card will be just a little late!  LOL!

I found it only fitting that I use a new set from Taylored Expressions designed by the Birthday Girl herself, Garden Party Blooms!  I {heart} this set!  I also paired it with this week's sketch from the Birthday Girl, TESC117!  I tilted my main panel just a smidge from the original sketch.....

Don't forget to head on over to Taylor's Blog to wish her a Happy Birthday!
