Melanie’s 30th Birthday card…..
Seems it is the month to turn 30, as I have 3 of them to go to!!!
My dear friend Mel turned 30 this week! We grew up together as next door neigbours since we were young girls. We would practice handstands on the front lawn, ride our bikes to the deli, diet together, and of course practice putting make-up on each other. Lots of my growing up memories have Mel in them. So whilt I know 30 is not old, we still both can’t believe we are now in our thirties!!!
Poor Mel, wasn’t feeling too good about saying goodbye to her twenties, and I remember that feeling oh so stongly also! But now that I am over it I really realized that it is just the lead up to turning thirty that is hard, once you are there and you feel no different, it isn’t such a big deal after all….funny people aren’t we!
Well I made a special card for her birthday, and since I just love the saying in the Fabulous flowers stamp set, I decided to add a little something to that to make is special just for her.
Can you see it? Yep…”Dare to be Fabulous at 30″ Hopefully this will help her to see that life is just beginning at thirty!
On saturday night we had Mel’s birthday bash. She decided to go out with a few of her fave girlfriends for a limo ride and flash dinner….Well a night to get dressed up, of course we gals were up for that!
Here are a couple of photos….at least they prove that women in their thirties still know how to have fun!
Here I am in the Limo with Mel

And here I am with Lee.
It was a good fun night and the dinner at (A)llure restaurant at Burswood was deluxe too…not to mention the dessert!
Thanks Mel, for the great night out, and I really hope you had a wonderful Birthday!
Love keesh x
Looks like you had a fab night. Always good to get together with friends. Very cute card too. Love reds/pinks together. Couple of years ago you wouldn’t ever put those colours together.
Hey Keesh - you girls look like you had a wonderful night!! You are so darn photogenic!!
Love the card you made for your friend too!
