Thank you to all those that sent me birthday cards in the mail and sent me tons of birthday wishes. Last week was my birthday and I was overwhelmed this year with cards, flowers and gifts. It was so much fun opening all my cards from all my talented team members and friends. A couple days before my birthday I went into work and my desk was all decorated with crape paper, flowers and a balloon. A couple of my cashiers thought it would be fun to decorate my desk for me. That day they surprised me with a delicious cake too. Then on my birthday I went in to more flowers and gifts galore on my desk. That afternoon my husband thought it would be fun to tune into my Facebook live video with his coworkers and they were all wishing me a happy birthday while I was live. I’ve always kept my birthday to myself, but I have to admit, it was a fun day. I thought I would share some of the gorgeous cards that I received.

This beautiful card is from my amazing friend and team leader Amy Koenders. Love how the leaves are in the 3 metallic colors.

This gorgeous fun fold card is from my fun and energetic friend and upline Jaimie Babarczy. LOVE this DSP and the fun fold.

This beautiful card is from my team member Barb Ross. The pretty flowers are from the rainbow glimmer paper and it’s more gorgeous in person

This pretty blue butterfly card is from my friend and team member Christian Rizzo. I just love butterflies

This stunning card is from my friend and team member Shirley Gentry. That DSP is so realistic and those leaves are just gorgeous.
