Celebrating you, Darnell!

Hi everyone!
Today is Darnell's birthday!
 Food and drinks are being served at Happy Dance, hosted by the hostess with the mostest, Bev.
There is a linky party going on over at Ardyth's blog, MASKerade.
Hop on over and join the party.


I just had to join in and celebrate Darnell at djkardkreations.  She is one of the kindest and most helpful bloggers in blog land.  Her posts ALWAYS bring a huge smile to my face as do her comments on my blog.  Wishing  you the best of birthdays,  my friend!  xo
My card was inspired by Jackie Rockwell's card over at her new challenge, The Cutting Edge.
I chose to be inspired by the colors and the star.


 I am also submitting this card over at Virgina's View Challenge.
 And edited to add this card to the Wonderful Words Challenge over at Moxie Fab.

On my card I used a stencil & spray mists for the stars.
 The Celebrate die is from Papertrey Ink and the you stamp is from Simon Says Stamp.

Happy Birthday to you, Darnell!  Have a blessed day!

Thank you for visiting and have a great day!
