Well, sad you couldn't be with hubs on your Birthday, but it sounds like you had a splended day anyway. love what you painted too! I love how you used the template with the pretty paper patterns and colors and the banner hanging across the page is fab. Nicely done
The colors of this kit were made for your photos! I like the use of the "little umbrella". I'm glad your hubby made sure you had some nice treats since he couldn't be there and that you had a good friend to make sure you had a great birthday!
