my favorite thing today is your BIRTHDAY

Hi everyone and happy Sunday :)
Today is 'Fastnacht' here in the very South-West of Germany in the Black Forest ;)
the kids can't wait for the procession to begin in the afternoon :) :) :)


I made another birthday card using one of the LeLo Design stamps from the new Valentine's collection. But I think this cute little doggie can be used for many other occasions, too.... like birthdays ;)

Hallo zusammen und einen schönen Sonntag :)
Heute ist 'Fastnacht' hier im äußersten Südwesten Deutschlands im Schwarzwald ;)
Die Kinder sind schon ganz aufgeregt und freuen sich schon auf die Umzüge heute nachmittag :) :) :)


Ich habe wieder mal eine Geburstagskarte gemacht. Benutzt habe ich hierzu einen Stempel aus der neuen Valentins-Kollektion von LeLo Design. Ich finde man kann diesen super süssen, knuffeligen Hund auch sehr gut für alle möglichen anderen Anlässe verwenden.... so wie halt Geburtstage ;)
