Forever 29?

I was talking to my niece on the phone yesterday and we happened to be talking about birthdays. She told me that for her birthday invitations last year, she wrote, "Please come to my 2nd Annual 29th Birthday Party." Now how funny is that? This year, her invitations will read "3rd Annual 29th Birthday Party." I never used to care much about age, but now that it's fastly creeping by, I want to be 29 again!!! So if anyone asks me how old I am today, I'll just say I'm 29 and leave it at that! Okay... enough sobbing...

I can't believe how many RAKs I received for my birthday! I feel so very blessed! I had already listed the first two in an earlier post from Angie and Debbie. I received four more, which I'd like to share with you.
This first card is from Lisa of Ohio. Lisa and I are in the same swap group that I recently joined. Lisa, I love the large plastic die cut flower! I've never used one before, but now I'd like to get some (I just heard ca-ching in the distance!) Thank you so much, Lisa. It's beautiful!

This next card is from Jen of Hawaii, my favorite vacation spot! Jen is actually the originator of Jen's Birthday RAK Club. You can't tell from this picture, but the bear has layers with lots of depth. She also included a package of clear stamps. How sweet is she? Thanks so much Jen. You're an "angel."

This card is absolutely adorable! It's from Heather Huggins of Oregon, who's also a member of Jen's RAK Club. Didn't she do such a great job coloring and designing this card? She also enclosed 4 sheets of stamped card stock ready to be colored. Heather, that is so sweet of you. I really appreciate it so much!

Now this card has a lot of work put into it. It's made by Diane Archer of Ohio. I looked through SCS, my phone contact list, email list, Jen's RAK list... but I don't know where she got my address and how she knew that it was my birthday! Diane, if you're reading this, please email me, or know that I so much appreciate this beautiful card and all the hard work you put into making it.

Thank you to all who wished me a happy birthday!
