Happy Birthday, darling Jodi!...

My lovely fellow Baker's Dozen Design Team member, Jodi Collins, is celebrating a birthday, and a whole big bunch of us are helping her party with a birthday blog hop! Jodi is one of the most talented, creative, prolific, and sweetest women I've ever had the honor of knowing, and I hope she has a wonderful, fabulous, day.
For my card for Jodi, I decided to use the perfect b-day cake from the Make a Wish set from Taylored Expressions. I thought Jodi might need a little friend to help her blow out the candles on this topsy-turvy cake, so I added a tweety little birdie, drawing in a ladder for her to reach those sparklers. Now keep the party going by heading over to the wonderful Danielle Lounds's Fat Cat Stamper. If you get off-track, just head over to the uber-terrific Karen Motz's Paper Playhouse for the full list, and be sure to leave Jodi some birthday good wishes when you are through!
