Today marks a very special day for a very special friend! We are hopping along to wish the super wonderful SHAY a very happy birthday! I hope this is one of your best years yet, Shay!
If you’re hopping along with us, then you should have arrived here from Joni’s blog. The full hop can be viewed on the Winnie & Walter blog here. I made this card for Shay using some Authentique papers and the Winnie and Walter set called Sugar Rush. Shay, I am not quite sure if this looks like a wedding card, so I hope you will marry me! :) I was trying to channel a winter theme with some red for the month of February for your big day:

You can see here that I colored some extra flowers and fussy cut them to add some dimension to the top of the birthday cake:

HUGS, Shay!!!! I do believe that some folks may have prepared videos but I was not so brave or creative HOWEVER we do have a special visit from Teddy modeling a sequin from your shop - he says happy birthday too! Your next stop on this hop is Kelly’s blog!

You crack me up with the marriage proposal and I love, love the picture of Teddy. What is better than cake and a sweet pup? :-) Thank you! I feel so blessed.
