Happy Birthday Karen!


Good morning my friends, it's time to wish the incredible Karen Baker a happy, happy birthday!  Karen is a super kind, loving soul. She always has genuine comments and we love to chit, chat about what our boys are up too.  I'd love to meet her in person one day as I'm sure we'd have a lot to talk about together. She's an incredibly talented designer and creative writer.  Her blog is an amazing place for inspiration. Her use of color is second to none.  Karen, I'm wishing up a super happy birthday full of lots of love and spoiling!

In honor of Karen's birthday, we're having a blog hop and guess what!?  There are prizes to win!  May Arts is offering up 2 spools of ribbon to one lucky commenter on the blog hop and one on Karen's blog.  Be sure to hop along and most importantly, be sure to wish Karen a happy birthday!
