A milestone birthday

For my grandaughter an eighth birthday is a milestone, not for everyone I know but I think, till you get to double figures (which takes an absolute age ) then birthdays become less remarkable. So when this challenge went up at Stampotique I took the opportunity to make her a card

This week Kathi is our hostess and she is taking us to a scary place, Milestone Birthday or Anniversaries Here is what she says about this challenge


"21, 25, 50, 60th Birthday or Anniversary -- It's time to celebrate! Let's see a project that celebrates those sometimes scary milestones of life!"


I used Roc's Horse and coloured with Copics, sentiment by W+9 sparkle and shine.
Thank you for your kind comments and for visiting me :D Gay xx

Oh, my, yes, 8 is SUCH a milestone birthday! It's when my grandsons started saying patiently, "I'm not a baby anymore, Bama!" Your granddaughter is going to adore and cherish her pony holding a brilliant #8 balloon in her teeth!! And that hat and those eyes and eyelashes! Wonderful attention to detail, Gay!! Hugs, Darnell

This is beautiful Gay, and I quite agree every birthday is a milestone when you are young 'cos they seem to take so long to come around. I hope your granddaughter has a wonderful birthday, and thanks so much for joining in with our challenge at Stampotique. Sue xx
