It was my friend, Kathy's birthday yesterday. Cindy, Kathy, Michelle, and I went out to celebrate. Kathy's the one in the yellow. We went restaurant hopping for her birthday. LOL! We started out at Red Lobster because her favorite food is seafood and then went to dessert at Cheesecake Factory. I had a decadent Godiva Chocolate Hot Fudge Brownie Sundae(try saying that 3 times fast!) and Kathy split a banana cheesecake drizzled with caramel with Michelle. Cindy was good and just had coffee. Next time I'm getting the banana cheesecake with caramel cuz it was yummy!!! My dessert was a bit too rich, even for me.
We gave her presents and of course i gave her a card. I pulled out my girls from the Nicest Things stamp set again. I stamped them in Versamark on watercolor paper and embossed them with black embossing powder. I like watercoloring this way because the embossing acts as a well so the colors don't bleed into each other so much. Kathy likes bright colors so I used Pacific Point and Melon Mambo.
