Today is fellow blogging friend, Christi Milliken’s birthday.
When her mom contacted me to see if I wanted to participate in a fun blog hop for Christi, my answer was a resounding, “Yes!”
So HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Christi!! May you have many many many more.
The jar of 50 primas was made from a baby food jar. The lid was painted with acrylic paint and a gingham ribbon was attached. The sentiment and circular floral border are from JustRite’s “Big Occasions Centers & Borders” set. It is attached with dimensionals.
Your next hop along the way, Christi, is over on Jeanette Fincher’s blog.
Oh and for anyone else interested, here are all of the blogger’s participating in Christi’s Nifty Fifty Birthday Hop.
Check them out!

Hi, Susan! Your work is adorable! I had to say “hi!” and let you know how wonderful your card and lil’ gift for Christi is… A-D-O-R-A-B-L-E! Beautifully stamped and crafted! TA DA! What a great honor for Christi! Great job, sweet gal! I’m honored to be playing along with you ALL! Yee Haw!
What a sweet idea to honor Christi on her special birthday with a blog hop! I love your re-use of that baby food jar to store primas! The card is so clean and fresh with that pretty flower and butterfly! Very cute, very clever:)
What an awesome card, Susan! Love all the flowers, your perfect little bow and that butterfly! And the jar of Primas is a great idea! Nice job!
Wow is Christi in for a treat when she receives all these amazing cards!!! Your is just spectacular! I LOVE the floral stamps and the little jar of flowers! Beautiful.
Susan, your tulips make me smile! And the faux stitching 🙂 A super pretty card. I know Christi will love it.
What a beautiful birthday card! I love the fresh colors and awesome design.
What a gorgeous card!! I love this!!
What an absolutely beautiful card! I love the tulips and that adorable butterfly! Your jar of flowers is the sweetest and I’m sure that Christi will love it!
so pretty…and love the matching envelope!
What a truly lovely card! Those tulips are gorgeous and I love that you incorporated the design on the envelope. A girl can’t have too many flowers, so Christi will love them for sure!
Wow. I repeat, WOW. Your card is amazing. I’m gonna have to lift it since I have that stamp set, LOL. Beautiful work.
Lovely idea!!! and obviously done with a lot of love. Great TFS!
Susan, what a fun surprise to have you be a part of my surprise birthday ‘party’!! Thank you for letting my mom bully you into it –just kidding– I have no idea what she said to you guys to make this happen, but she’s no bully. 😉
Your card is so fresh and fun (and there’s not even a hint that it’s for an old person! -lol) –I love that set (I’ve been moving that one in and out of my shopping cart since it first came out…me thinks it’s moving back in to stay!) and I have no doubt that it’ll be even lovelier in person (and I’ll be drooling over this beauty just as soon as I get through visiting with the rest of my sweetest blog friends)! There are sooo many wonderful details (dimension, glitter, bling, faux stitching, faux frame, etc.) and you even stamped on the envelope to match. It’s all so pretty!!
And how clever to repurpose a baby food jar! It’s completely adorable, and the 50 primas are going to be so fun to get to play with!
Thanks again, Susan! I’m so blessed by your talent and kindness.
So sweet! The jar of Primas is a great idea!
Beautiful Susan. What a way to use that PTI set.
Pretty, pretty Susan.
