Classy and Fabulous

Happy Birthday, Morgan! We love you and we're so proud of both you and Dan. So glad you'll be home soon. Hope your day is as fabulous as you are.
Today is our youngest DIL's birthday and she is what the title of the post says. She is far, far away in the UK and we are thrilled that she and our son will be moving back home in a month, so I am saving her card and present for when she gets home. This, however, is her card and I'm going to tell her she can see it here. My son finished up research that he did at Oxford on a scholarship. He will return home with a PhD in Biochemistry and we are very proud of him. Our DIL has had a fabulous job working with Harley-Davidson and has also finished up her English degree online while over there so she, too, is returning having earned her second degree, her first being in music. They'll be home a few days and then head off to start Medical School for my son and hope that my DIL can find a job while he goes to school. A little info on the card.....the image is "Suzie Q" from In-Style Stamps. The papers are from the June "Key Ingredients" kit from Taylored Expressions, and the little packaged-brad is from "Sweet Treat Boutique Brads" from Taylored Expressions. The sentiment is from "She's a Lady" from There She Goes. She is colored with Copics to match the fun DP from the kit. I made a double bow with my new "Bow Easy," (more about that later.) Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a great week.

Karen, you must be so proud of your son and DIL! Well, of course you are...I just read about how proud you are. It's wonderful to have them coming back to the states, but what an opportunity this was for both of them! I see a very cute card made with lots of love and thoughtfulness, as well as more of your fabulous coloring. I know Morgan is going to love it, and love you all the more for making it!
