#doodlewashMay2021 prompt: Glass.
My birthday was last week, and one of my gifts was a beautiful bouquet of flowers and another was a collection of sketchbooks. Unfortunately, since I was visiting in Florida, I had to leave the bouquet behind when I left for home.
But I used one of the sketchbooks to capture the bouquet forever! Along with a photo or two.
I haven’t got to it, but I intend to do the birthday cake too. I did get to take much of it home – in the form of bulges around my waist! That cake looked so much better before I ate it!

Happy Belated Birthday Sandra❣️ Beautiful flowers and fun cake! Hoping your birthday was filled with love, laughter and fun!
Hugs, Phillis
Thank you! It was a wonderful day. I got to spend time with family I hadn’t seen for a long time, so that made it extra special!
my take away from this post . . . you go by ‘Sandy’??? who knew!
Actually, I prefer Sandra, but I could never convince my family of that. Most of them still call me Sandy! I used to hate it, but it doesn’t matter much to me anymore.
What a gorgeous birthday bouquet and you get to keep it forever in your artwork! Happy Birthday, Sandra.
Thank you, Sharon! I took lots of photos, too!
Happy Birthday ! Beautiful flowers ♥
Thank you, Jackie!
SO fun to get a peek at your party…and your bouquet is so lovely….I’m very fond of that scribbly glass vase!
and yes….I feel the same ~ all baked good look better in the box than on the bottom! 🙂
so glad you had family to celebrate with!
Thank you, Judy! It was the first time I’ve celebrated my birthday with family in at least 20 years. I’ve seen them, but it just never chanced to be on my birthday, so that really made it special. That’s one of the problems with having family scattered all around the world.
You certainly preserved that bouquet in your painting! The cake looks yummmmy, and I can’t wait to see how you sketch that! Keep celebrating!
Thank you so much, Kathy! That cake just screams ‘gouache’ to me!
