40

Hey there! One of my good friends from my hometown is turning 40 in early August, so I wanted to send her an extra special card in honor of this extra special occasion.

I used two challenges to get the creative mojo flowing. CAS-ual Fridays Challenge 134: Tic Tac Toe (dots, gray, twine) and Seize the Birthday: Stringing Along More Birthday Wishes!



Here's what I came up with:


I hope she likes it!!!

Thanks for stopping by!
