A very happy birthday to Josh!!!

The ODBD family is celebrating a very special birthday for a very special guy!  So, if you’ve arrived here from Patter’s blog, then you’re in the right place!  If not, please start at the ODBD blog.  Read on to find out what this special hop is all about and how you may receive a gift on Josh’s birthday!

Who mounts the rubber on the cushions?  JOSH!
Who pulls most of the orders?  JOSH!
Who packages the orders?  JOSH!
Who has only missed 2 shows in 2 years?  JOSH (and that was due to an illness and the other was to attend a can’t-be-missed concert)!

Kelley was blessed to have this guy help her and her business!  He’s just not a pretty face…he’s one of only a few behind-the-scenes people of ODBD…he’s Josh!

Now, now…don’t let his inviting smile or hypnotic gaze distract you!  You still have to take a look at the card I sent him !  I hope he likes it.  It was hard for me to not add a bow…LOL!  One of Josh’s favorite image is the lighthouse from the Keep My Lamp Burning set so I made sure to use it for his card:
Kelley is giving away THREE $15 ODBD gift certificates for those who complete Josh’s Hop.  Enter to win by leaving a comment on each of the blogs AND on the ODBD blog at the end of the hop.
Head on over to Connie’s blog next and see what she has for Josh.
And to Josh…many blessings to you on your birthday!!!

  18. Wow, very cool card! I love the blue with the browns, that distress on the blue, the lighthouse and buttons, very nice. Great tribute to Josh, the words and the card. Yeah, it might have been easier to keep reading if you had put your card before his picture. : )

  21. Great Card for a guy's bday, Lorelie! I really like that image...and the buttons and the tag look great. Here in Florida, many planes fly banners with announcements like "Happy Birthday Josh" on it over the beach!
