Happy Birthday Vivien

Hi there! Today I have a sweet, little birthday card that I created for my daughter’s friend, Vivien.

I don’t often show all the many birthday cards that I create for my daughter’s friends. I make many, and they are almost always very last minute. I usually never have time to photograph them, but today I made a point to share this one because it is so cute. My daughters always want everything personalized for their friends. This is where alpha dies and alpha stickers come in handy. For this card I used the Pinkfresh Studio Noteworthy Puffy Alpha Stickers.

For the pattern papers I used the My Favorite Story 6×6 pack along with a few circle dies. My favorite is that layered bow. I used the My Favorite Story Fabric Bows. I also added a Reverse Birthday sentiment strips that was die cut with one of the Sentiment Label dies. For embellishment I used a few enamel dots in coordinating colors.

This is an extra special birthday card for Vivien. Vivien is a sweet little Hungarian girl who has only been in Germany for a year or so, just like Emma. Vivien cannot speak any English so it forces both girls to speak German to each other. You should hear their cute, little squeaky voices just jibber-jabbering away to each other in German with so many giggles.

I get teary eyed just looking at this card that Emma addressed to Vivien. It says, “You are my best friend. When I came to Germany I thought I wouldn’t have any friends, but I have one. My only friend is you!” I’m not sure if her grammar and spelling are perfectly correct, but it’s perfectly full of heart:) Here’s Vivien & Emma together.

The birthday present was full of pink glittery slime and stickers. Gotta love 10 year old girls! Thanks so much for stopping by!

    Laura – omg, they are SO cute! How wonderful they have become such good friends, and hope their friendship will always be there, as they grow-up. With the little German that I remember from living there years ago….. Emma’s spelling is perfect! I can’t tell if it’s grammatically correct, but it sure looks like it – well done! And oh yes, – the card is darling, too!!

    I love the card! I have a step-granddaughter who just turned 11 so I can relate to all the slime and anything sparkly! Lol! Fortunately, slime wasn’t around when my 19 yr. old daughter was their age!
