Happy Birthday Jessica

Welcome to the Birthday Blog Hop.  Today we are surprising Jessica Knutsen of There She Goes with a Blog Hop to celebrate her birthday.  If you have arrived from Katie's blog you are on the right track, if not you may want to start at Angela's blog and hop all the way through to see the fab creations.

I was inspired by this sketch challenge at Lily Pad Cards:

The challenge at TSG this week is easel cards so I played along with that too.  I have used some Cosmo Cricket Garden Variety along with the My Little Friend Set.  I made the grass with some twine from The Twinery.  

Your next stop is Lisa's blog.  

Don't forget to stop over at Jessica's blog to wish her a happy birthday.
