Birthday Sundaes #38 - we're BACK!

Hi All!

I'm super excited because Birthday Sundaes is BACK with more challenges and more fun! After our holiday hiatus, the Design Team is well rested and ready to share more Birthday inspiration with all of you!

This week's challenge is to create a BIRTHDAY CARD WITH A BIRTHDAY SENTIMENT! You know the drill - anything GOES (as long as it's a birthday card with a birthday sentiment on the card front! :)

We've got a fabulous sponsor this week as well!

One lucky winner will win a $10 online gift certificate to the Whimsie Doodles online store! If that's not enough to motivate you all to play, I don't know what is! :)

Here's my card to share with you today:

supplies: Everything is a from a really old Taylored Expressions Key Ingredients Kit - November of 2009 or 2010. image: Winter Leah (Whimsie Doodles); sentiment: Winter Wishes ("warm", "wishes" K Andrew Designs), Coffee & Tea For You and Me ("birthday" - K Andrew Designs),  Copic Markers.

I mixed a couple of my favorite K Andrew Designs sets:

Winter Wishes:

and Coffee & Tea For You and Me:

 to create the sentiment. Fun, right? :)

Feels so good to play along with Birthday Sundaes again! Hope you all get a chance to join us - good luck! :)

Thanks for stopping by! Have a wonderful day! :)

here fishie fishie...

Yay it's finally FRIDAY!

How are you all doing today? I wanted to quickly stop by with a quick card today:

Isn't my little fish from Whimsie Doodles so cute? You can't tell from the picture but he WIGGLES! :)

supplies: CS: Solar White (Neenah); DP: Echo Park; digi stamp & sentiment: Whimsie Doodles; ink: SU!; other: Copic Markers, Action Wobble

I got the idea for this card from my fellow DT mate Kimberly who sometimes uses Action Wobbles to give movement to her cards. How clever, right? Thanks for the idea, Kimberly! :)

I can't wait to use more of these on my future cards!

Thanks for stopping by today! Have a fabulous day! :)

yay + blog awards!

Happy Saturday, y'all!

I meant to post a "Scrappy Saturday" post today - I actually met my goal of creating a scrapbook layout this week, but I couldn't find my memory card for the camera... Boo. It'll have to wait then.

But I was browsing through my Google Reader last night and found I've been spotted at Whimsie Doodles with this card...

Huge honor since I tried out for DT recently and didn't make it... But I digress... :)

ANDDDD... Recently I've been awarded some blog awards by some sweet ladies in blogland. I always appreciate these - it really means a lot to me that people stop by and visit my blog and look and my stuff and read my ramblings. :) *lol*

Birthday Sundaes Challenge #25: Birthday Card with a Birthday Sentiment!

It's my birthday TODAY and what better way to celebrate than with my fabulous Birthday Sundaes DT pals & Birthday Sundaes Challenge! :)

This week's challenge is sponsored by Whimsie Doodles and the theme is to create a Birthday Card with a Birthday Sentiment! You don't even have to use a Whimsie Doodles image to play!

Here's my card for this week:

Here's another view of the card:

Since it's my birthday I wanted to make a really special card for this week's challenge and try something I've never done before - a center step card! Super easy to make... and FUN too! I'm totally going to make more of these - I LOVE this type of fold! :)
