A few of my friends are celebrating with me
Wish I could have asked everyone but a blog hop
with 501 stops seemed a bit much
I want you all to know how much I appreciate your stopping by leaving comments
Had no idea when I started this blog journey I would make so many fabulous friends
wonderful creative women who are so supportive, encouraging, thoughtful
that share my love of paper crafting
Thanks to all of you!
now for the hop line up
Here is my card
Okay I know you may be thinking I am a little crazy to make a birthday card for myself but here is the thing. The are a lot of "K" girls in my family my sister Kathy birthday 9-23, my daughter Kristen birthday 10-18, my niece Karissa birthday 12-10 so this card will come in very handy!
A Penny Black stamp colored with copic markers, Card base from Sentimentals, Mat from Elegant Edges, layered with strips of paper scraps, stickles, crinkle ribbon and a button.
Now what would a party and a blog hop be with out some candy. To win this gift all you have to do is 1. be a follower 2. leave a comment I will post the winner next Sunday.
A $25 dollar gift certificate to Papertrey Ink
Happy Hopping everyone and thank you all for making my birthday so special!
Happy Birthday to you, Karen. Like the bday card with a sweet colored girl image.
