Am I Caught Up Yet?

 

Happy Monday everyone!

 

I'm back from my sunny California vacation. The weather was awesome! I had fun at Comic Con, Universal Studios, and I even got to meet several celebs from "How I Met Your Mother" and "Game of Thrones".

 

Whew....now I've got to get caught up on all of my blog posts.

 

Today is all about the Paper Made Bakery. I just love this month's kit. Here are two cards that I made.

 

 

I added some sparkly bling, ribbon, a stick pin, and a button. The birthday sentiment on the first card is from Fresh Squeezed Stamps.

The July Fresh Baked Kit is called "Classy Lady". Orders yours here!

I'm entering the first card in a couple of fun challenges:

 

Moxie Fab World - Birthday Card Challenge

 

Seize The Birthday - Anything Goes (STB #5)

 

Sarah Hurley Challenge - Pink Sparkles

It's All About The Sentiment

 I'm all for fast and stress free crafting. That's why I love to use sentiments that can be used for "Double Duty".

Let's examine the sentiment that I've used today and I can show you what I'm talking about.

The "what a wonderful day" sentiment can be used for many occasions.

I've made two cards to ...

 

1. Congratulate my friend on her job promotion

 

And...

 

2. To Celebrate my co-workers birthday

 

 

 As you can see...it's really all about the sentiment.

 

I'm playing along in two fun challenges:

 

 

Cas-Ual Fridays

 

 

 

 And Seize the Birthday!

 

 

 

See ya back here tomorrow for the Paper Made Bakery Blog Hop!

I've been out and about all weekend, but I wanted to pop in today to enter into some fun challenges before time runs out! Tick...tock...tick...tock...must hurry!!!!

 

I'm trying to make more birthday cards so that I'll always have some on hand. Here's a new birthday creation.

 

 

 

First, I'm linking up to Annette's Linky party. It's a fun one that's all about birthdays & anniversaries!

 

 

 

Next, I'm linking up to Seize the Birthday. This is my first time playing over there. I will be joining in more often for sure. It's a whole lotta fun & will help me stock up on b-day cards.
