You're HOW old?

Hi everyone. I know I haven't posted in awhile. May always seems to be a busy month for me. It is finally warming up enough to spend some time outside doing yard work. My son is graduating at the end of the month. Plus, in May, we celebrate Mother's Day, my wedding anniversary AND my birthday -- all in one week! Monday was our anniversary. We celebrated with some friends on Saturday evening. Then on Sunday, we got together with my sister and her family. My brother-in-law dug out some lily of the valley for me, so I had to plant those on Monday, which meant digging out a lot of weeds first. And this Friday is my birthday. Can you guess how old I'll be on Friday? Just fill in the blank. (Edited to add: This contest is now closed. Thanks, everyone, for playing.)

" _____ isn't old unless you're a tree!"

The first correct guess wins a prize! Only one guess per person and you must leave an email address where I can contact you for an address. Contest will close on Friday evening, unless there are no correct guesses yet. I will also choose a random comment for another prize.

Here's the card I made in honor of my birthday. There is no stamping on this card. I used my cuttlebug, a couple of Sizzix dies and punches. The die cut leaves were used as a mask to sponge around. Ink color is wild wasabi. Cardstock is glossy white, whisper white, and wild wasabi. The sentiment was printed on my computer (font - space toaster). The little leaf is a Martha Stewart punch. The string is green pearl cotton.

Thanks so much for stopping by. Good luck!

Wellllll.....I know your children are older than mine, but I think you started earlier than me!! hehe....I say I have NO idea!!

I am instructionally challenged, so here's my official guess.
"43 isn't old unless you're a tree!"

seamom said...

So... I will try again.
"47 isn't old unless you're a tree."
BTW I really like your definition of a card: A card is a hug with a fold in the middle.

I like your card. Every once in a while I will do something that has no stamping,it's a challenge.
My guess is 51 and proud of it!

OK, so I already guessed 49 and that wasn't right and someone else already guessed 50, I'm going with 60 though I highly doubt you are 60.
