My Birthday banner

Good morning all, I hope everyone is having a wonderful day so far.  I wanted to show you the Banner I made for my Birthday party.  I really love how it turned out, being only the second one I have done.  The color sceme for my party was pink, black, white, and silver.  

All the ladies had a good time. One of the ladies made the comment that none of them work on any of their scrapbooks or projects unless it is when I have a get together for them to work on their stuff.  So we are planning to get together again soon, I think I am going to plan a "crop til you drop" event about every three months or so, so that we can all have some extra time set a side to work on things without other distractions.

My wonderful Husband took the kids out so us ladies wouldn't have the kid distraction.  When they came back home they brought an Ice Cream Cake from Dairy Queen with them for me, how sweet! I love my family!  Well, on to the pictures:
