PTT #12

I'm not sure where to start LOL! I've been left speechless by my wonderful team!

When I asked Di to become our team leader for PTT and she accepted, she asked me if she could take over the blog for this week. This was quite some time ago and I said sure, just figuring I would take a break from getting it organized. Well Di and the rest of the team surprised me with a special dedicated blog post! What an awesome thing to wake up to this morning!

I can't begin to thank you girls enough for the special words, beautiful cards, and especially the friendship and everything you have done to make Party Time Tuesdays a success. It makes my heart so happy and I feel so special!

Onto to the challenge ~ It's My Birthday challenge and it's a color challenge! Please create a birthday card using my favorite colors ~ pink, brown & white. Be sure to include a birthday greeting/sentiment on the card front and then link it up to the PTT blog!

You can see all the awesome birthday cards created by my fabulous team and our GDT, my good friend Danni, on the PTT blog! Links are also located on my left sidebar.

Edited to Add: Since tomorrow is my actual birthday, I've decided to host my first ever blog candy! Stop back tomorrow morning to see how you can enter to win!

Have a fantastic day, I know I will!

Get Sketchy with CSAYL!

Despite my feeling poorly the last few weeks, I’ve not given up on the Scrappin-n-Chattin EDCC yet, yay me!  I found oodles of Sandylion 3D stickers that I bought a few years ago and challenged myself to use them up, so I’ve been able to make quick cards with them every day.  I made this the other day and finally had a few minutes to sit down and post it since I am feeling much better today.  I started a vitamin supplement the other day and it seems to be helping!

I created this card using this week’s Get Sketchy #51 and the challenge at Christmas Stampin All Year Long to use 2 or more designer papers.

I just {heart} snowglobes! They are so fun to shake up and watch the snow fall :)  I thought they’d be perfect for the sketch.

It’s time for me to go make today’s card!  TFL!

Happy Tuesday!

This week’s Party Time Tuesdays challenge is the every popular “Anything Goes Birthday CARD”, just remember to include a birthday greeting/sentiment on your card front and you’re good to go!

We also have another guest designer joining us this week and her name is Jan! She’s a frequent PTT player and Top 3 winner! Please be sure to check out the PTT blog for her fabulous creation along with the DT’s awesome samples!

Here is my card~

Yes, another easel card LOL!! This one has been made for almost a month, I made it for my mom to give my neighbor for her birthday.  I so love how it came out!  It was my first time using the MFT Lovin’ from the Oven set, it was fun to paper piece the image!  The sentiment on the card base is from the Sweet ‘n Sassy Stamps birthday greetings set – my favorite go to sentiments set!

To play along with PTT, link up your newly created ‘anything goes’ birthday card (with a birthday greeting/sentiment on the card front) to the PTT blog by next Monday night. If you’d like to be considered for the Top 3, have your card posted by 8pm EST on Sunday.
