Rio's Birthday Blog Hop!

Happy birthday Rio!  Betty's daughter Rio is turning 14 today so we are doing a birthday blog hop in her honor!  It just happens to be preview day of the new Simply B Stamps Teen Scene Munsters Birthday Rio image (imagine that) so we all made her bday cards using the image fashioned after her :)

If you arrived here from Betty's blog then you are right where you should be, if not please go back to the Simply B Stamps blog to start at the beginning of the hop!


I was told that her favorite color is a rainbow variety and Betty wasn't kidding! After meeting Rio last week  I see that she does love bright colors (check out photo below) and her personality matches!  This is one of the sweetest, funniest and loving kids that I've ever met!  I kept teasing her that I was going to take her home with me :)

OK, so on to the card, lol.  I colored my Rio in bright pastels to match this ca-ute Sweet Love paper by Little Yellow Bicycle.  I added a trio of hearts from the new Lifestyle Crafts Sweetheart Collection and also a cuppycake from Baked Goods die (also LSC).


Here's a closer look at Rio and a closer lookie loo at the cuppycake.  All 6 of the new Birthday Munster images will be released this Friday at Simply B Stamps!!


And HERE is the real Rio...funny how the colors I picked 2 weeks ago are pretty darn close to the tutu she wore that day!  This is me & Rio in Disneyland last week.  She's my new best friend! (JK Betty and Lea, you're stil my best friends too!!)


And here's me with Lea, Betty, Rio and Mickey!!


OK, so back to hopping!  From here hop over to Jennifer's blog!  And if you got lost along the way. here's the hop order!  don't forget to leave everyone, especially Rio, some love today!!

Happy Birthday sweet Rio, I love you and miss you!
