It's my DD's birthday!

Hi everyone! This will be another quick post as DH is monitoring my computer time. He thinks that it is contributing to my tension headache. ;) This will be temporary because I know you all miss my rambling and my page long posts. haha!
First off, it's my DD's 8th bday!! Here she is at one of her soccer games getting ready for a corner kick:

I wonder why I didn't look that cute when I played soccer. Anyway, so a quick brag - Nala is just turning 8 but is the top student of her 2nd grade class which of course makes me so proud. She's also a gifted athlete which makes her daddy happy. And she's an awesome sister which makes her siblings love her, even her big brothers. Happy b-day Nala! (Yes, she was named after the character in The Lion King. It was our first movie date. :D)


Okay, my time is running out...DH keeps walking past me. lol!
The Digi Shack is having a sketch challenge!
This is the sketch that Mandy presented to us:




Oooh...my mind went racing when she posted it. Then it went spinning with the headache. :( So here was my interpretation (be kind!):

This card is so bright IRL, no wonder my head hurts! I used the wonderful daisy image from TDS as the circle and then embellished it accordingly. I hope you all decide to join in on the fun, please use the keyword TDSC05 in your gallery so we can all find you, and leave a comment HERE on the main blog. Go see what wonderful cards and projects the other girls made, Lani was really popular this week! Toni is also giving away a set of freebies, they are Hawaiian sentiments that coordinate with Lani, but can go with any image! Click HERE for the bargain of the day. :D Tomorrow I'll be showing you a special card that I made for Nala, but for now -->the letter of the day is "E."<--

Have a wonderful Thursday everyone! *Love and Aloha*
