happy 40 and happy new house

My dearest and bestest friend turned 40 yesterday.  I always try to make her something for her birthday because she has always believed in me and my creative talent and has always treasured the stuff I make for her.  I think it also means a lot to her because she is not crafty/creative at all.  Although I really think everyone is creative, but that's another topic.  Anyway, her and her husband recently bought a new house so I thought she would like a painting of it.  David and I ran over there a couple days ago so I could snap a few photos.  I couldn't get the entire house in the frame, but I thought no problem, I will just piece them together.  Well, I didn't do such a good job of that because I left out one section of the house!  There is another garage too, but I purposefully left that out.  Oh well!  She still absolutely loved it.  After I painted it, I thought it would make the cutest tags.  Now, I don't know what you do with gift tags with your house printed on them, but that's not my problem!  Ha!  I think the house is so cute in the mini-size and I couldn't resist.
