Hey y'all, I hope your morning is going better than mine. Last night I was reading on my Kindle and it quit responding when I told it to turn the page, then it said that all of my books were deleted from my device and unavailable (THE NERVE!), and so far I have been unable to make it work. Kindles are great for carrying around hundreds of books easily, but I have to say I've never had a physical book suddenly stop working. Arrrrgh. I think I'll be chatting with Amazon later today.
In the meantime, we have several birthdays coming up in the family this month, so here's the card I made for my little brother:
He went through a phase as a kid where he collected all kinds of panda paraphernalia, and even though he doesn't collect anymore I still think of him when I see anything panda-related. I'm planning to send him this book (hardback, because I know that will not suddenly stop working) because it sounds like it's going to be a really interesting read. I had thought about buying the Kindle version for myself but that will have to wait until I get a device that actually works. *annoyed book dragon snort*
Anyway, back to the card, Adam loves orange (he and my dad are both Oklahoma State cowboys, they have orange and black everything, including vehicles), so I chose Timid Tiger for my main color, then colored the balloon with Summer Splash just because I liked it with Timid Tiger. This would have come together super quickly but I messed up the panda on the first card front I tried, so I had to stamp it again, but I think I like how it turned out.
I'm entering this at the CAS birthday challenge at CAS on Friday. Gotta get this card in the mail today and then I'll order the book in a few days to see if I can get it to Adam close to his actual birthday this weekend. In the meantime, I'm going to try to figure out why my Kindle suddenly lost the plots. Literally.
Cheers!

Very cute panda card--your brother will love it! Thanks for sharing at CAS on Sundays!!
Super cute panda card Christy! I hope you sort your Kindle; I too prefer a good hardback, but you can't beat a Kindle for having lots of books in one place. Only when they work though, of course!
Adorable!! Such a cute little panda!! Thanks for playing along with our BIRTHDAY challenge over at CAS on Friday!! Today begins a new RAINBOW challenge over there and we hope you will play along with us again.
