When I started blogging back in 2013, I never expected to make virtual blogging friends. But it has happened. I like that we encourage each other! One of them is Nicole,  The Paper Baker. Early in November, she posted that her birthday month is November, and she asked if any other bloggers (or readers) would send her a birthday card. I made this for her.

I stenciled a background with Distress Ink, and mounted punched flowers around the embossed sentiment.
