Happy Birthday Ross

Hi there ...

Yesterday my beautiful great Nephew Ross celebrated his 9th birthday ...
I haven't seen him in a while but I know he had a great stay with his grandparents last week 
I made a little card for him ... very similar to one I have done before ...


I love this 'Birds on a Wire' digital stamp from Hero Arts ... and I isolated one of the birds as you can see using my computer and printed it twice ... once on my card stock ... then paper pieced over it. The banner is also digital from Michelle underwood at Two Peas ... called "That was Yesterday" ... again I printed it twice and paper pieced it ...


Of course as I have already mentioned before ... this day is tinged with sadness as we also lost Ross's daddy the day after his 3rd birthday ... so my thoughts and my love are with my brother and Sil today.


I also want to thank Stella ... for passing on this blog award to me ... Thank you sweet friend!


And a big Thank You to all of you who take the time to leave me comments ... I really do appreciate each and every one of you ... 
I'll leave you with this thought .. something I heard at my philosophy class last night 
"You can wrestle with life or you can dance with it ... "
I hope you choose to dance ...
Till soon

~ Ros ~

Ahhh... so cute. I adore those long legged birds. We have some with long legs here that are always running along the road (not cute though like these). I'm sure your great nephew will love this.

This is so sweet and cute but besides the bright side of his birthday there is also sadness....
But I know for sure that this cute and gorgeous card will bring some extra happiness!
I am such a dork with "digitals" and can learn a lot from you. It's about time I hop over :)
Fabulous Ros; it's always lovely to be here.
Enjoy your day...XXXXX
