No Fair!

Last year on my birthday, I reached the age of eligibility for Medicare. My sister Joany, born a mere 21 months after me, is celebrating her Sweet Sixteen birthday today on the last day of February 2016. No fair, I say!

I grabbed the scraps from my Valentine's Day project with Caroline and Emmy, and cut some hearts from what was left of Emmy's collage sheet. Folded a piece of card stock, collaged some tissue paper, drew some lines and doodles with ink, and softened some boldnesses with wax pastels.

Happy birthday, sweet sister of mine!

I love everything about these, Dotty!

Thanks, Laurie. Emmy's collaging, especially once scribbled, has made for very appealing cutouts, I must say.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!

Thanks, Sheila! This one had a happy vibe to it, as did my sister's sweet sixteen birthday!

Loved every part about this Dotty, and the fact that I now own the card. Such fun having you and Emmy be part of my Sweet Sixteen!

I just noticed that the time of my comment today was 2:29. That was also the time Guy was born. Good numbers!
