Our dear friend Anita
who lives far away,
Had a birthday sneak by us
One month ago today!
Bev called us together,
she plotted and planned,
on how to surprise her
without showing our hand!
The plans were discussed
Now what shall we do?
To make things all better
And have some fun too!
Let's have a party
Darnell shouted out!
One month later?
A surprise...no doubt!
So put on your party hat
no matter the date,
And shout HAPPY BIRTHDAY
... hey, we're only one month late!
VERY HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY WISHES ANITA!
I hope that your 'real birthday' was fun as fun can be and that you took time out just for yourself...as in no "maison" work. Cyber hugs to you...for now!
The party is over at Darnell's blog so, skip on over and join in the linky fun! Many thanks to Darnell and Bev, party planners extraordinaire!

Card deets: PTI - All About You (likely one of their original stamp sets!); Memento Teal Zeal ink
Your poetry is just as fabulous as your cards friend!
ReplyDeleteEvery time I visit I just get to realise again why I love CAS designs so much. Beautiful design Geri. LOVE those flowers in a row so perfectly stamped.
Big hug
