Welcome to the Final Day of Jillian's Birthday Blog Hop and Winner from Day 3

Welcome to Jillian’s Birthday Blog Hop!  You should have arrived here from Yolie.  If you just happened to stumble upon this hop, please be sure to go back to Jillian’s blog so you don't miss any of the wonderful projects we have to share. Today is the last day of the hop so I thought I would do something special.

I thought I would do this card with a little surprise inside.

I apologize for not getting a better picture of the card however we are having a cloudy/rainy day so I couldn’t take the picture outside. (A better camera wouldn’t hurt either…LOL). 

In case you can't read it, it says " I picked this flower for you." on the left side. On the right it says "Wishing you a day full of surprises, lots of smiles, the best cake ever..."

Here I am trying to show the dimension of the honey combed paper.

Recipe:

Card Stock from my stash

Inky Antics Pretty Posey Stamps

Inky Antics Honey Combed Pad

Memento Black Ink

Copic Markers

Hero Arts Stamps

Martha Stewart Punch Around the Page-Vintage Floral

I hope you enjoyed the projects for Jillian’s Birthday Blog Hop. I know Jillian will enjoy her birthday. In fact, school is ending soon so how nice is that to have your birthday and then no school?

Speaking of school, I know many of you will be scrapping your school pictures soon so for blog candy today I have these cute school stamps from TPC Studios. For a chance to enter please be a follower and leave me a comment telling me if you have school on your birthday (if it fell on a week day) or does your birthday fall during one of the school vacation times.  Good Luck!

 The Winner from Yesterday is...

Welcome to Day 3 of Jillian's Birthday Blog Hop and Winner from Day 2

Welcome to Jillian’s Birthday Blog Hop!  You should have arrived here from Yolie.  If you just happened to stumble upon this hop, please be sure to go back to Jillian’s blog so you don't miss any of the wonderful projects we have to share. Each day I will be posting a new project with new blog candy for you to win so be sure to come back each day.

For today’s project I made Jillian an ice cream cone. Now everybody likes ice cream (well, almost everyone) but I think everyone will like this one….no calories!

The one thing I will say about this is that I could not find the embossing folder for the cone part. There is one (I forget the name off hand) that has squares/diamond shapes on it and it is perfect for making an ice cream cone. I went to 3 stores (hours away) and still didn’t find it so the best I could do is to come up with this brown textured looking paper.

   

Just a little note….I put lots of ice cream on that cone however you can start it lower and arrange it so when you flip it over, the ice cream does not show above the white paper if that bothers you.

Recipe:

Card Stock from my stash

Brown printed paper from my stash

Sizzix Petal Cone Die

Stamp from Hero Art

Memento Rich Cocoa Ink

Tear Drop Punch (not sure who made it) 

I hope you enjoyed the ice cream cone. I thought it was a nice project as it doesn’t matter if you are a girl or a boy it would be fitting. Speaking of boys….it is hard at times to find things for boys so today’s candy is this clear stamp set by Cloud 9 Design, Simple Thoughts-Boys.

For a chance to win just be a follower and leave me a comment telling me if you would rather have a baked cake or an ice cream cake for your next birthday.. If you do not leave me a way to contact you, you have 3 days to claim your prize. For an extra chance Jillian is trying to get 300 fans on Facebook. If you aren’t a fan, please like her at http://www.facebook.com/ajillianvancedesign then come back and leave me another comment saying you are a fan. Good luck!

The Winner from Yesterday is....

Winner from Yesterday's Drawing!!!!

The first drawing was a combination of the two names from the Spring Card (reached 100 followers) and the three people who answered the question from the blog hop. Yep, that is it....three people for a total of 5 people in the drawing for the blog candy. Although I do appreciate all comments the directions were to tell me what was the best thing you ever received for your birthday.

And the winner is...

Congratulations Reyne!!!  

 Reyne: The box is adorable! I received a cell phone a few years ago as a Birthday gift. It was by far the best that I recall. 

Reyne, you have 3 days to come back and claim your prize since you left no way for me to contact you.

Now off you go to check out some more fantastic projects...your next stop is Deanne.

Welcome to Day 1 of Jillian's Birthday Blog Hop

Welcome to Jillian’s Birthday Blog Hop!  You should have arrived here from Yolie.  If you just happened to stumble upon this hop, please be sure to go back to Jillian's blog so you don't miss any of the wonderful projects we have to share. Each day I will be posting a new project with new blog candy for you to win so be sure to come back each day.

For my first project I made a birthday box. Something small could go in it or maybe if you were having a party one could go on the table for each of your guests filled with candies. I topped this one with a flower however a bow would have been just as nice. They say good things come in small packages and so this little one should delight anyone who receives it.

 I did the two opposite sides with the same colors and decoration.

 

 I thought the flower would go nice on it.

 Here is a look at the how the top closes without the flower.

Recipe:

White cardstock

Copic Markers

Stickers

Stickels

Sizzix Pedal Cone Die

Stamps from Hero Arts

Flower from Recollections

I hope you enjoyed seeing the little box. As I said, good things do come in small packages and so this little box brings us to something good...your first chance to win some candy.  You must be a follower and leave me a comment telling me what was the best thing you ever received for your birthday. (If you do not leave me a way to get in touch with you, you have 3 days to claim your prize). For an extra chance Jillian is trying to get 300 fans on Facebook. If you aren’t a fan, please like her at http://www.facebook.com/ajillianvancedesign then come back and leave me another comment saying you are a fan. 

Since my project was dealing with texture to both the sight and touch (stickels, flower, etc) I have some fun textures for you to add to your project with these Martha Stewart Stamps. 

Now off you go to check out some more fantastic projects...your next stop is Deanne.

New Card and Some Great News!

Spring is here....and here is the card to prove it!

This card was made with paper I had in my stash, Martha Stewart Double Arch Punch, and the flower I made from an unlikely source. (Want to know from what and how...just leave a post asking me.) The hummingbird is a sticker and the other embellishments I won in my yahoo group as a bingo prize.

Yes, I finally won bingo! Oh, that is great news...at least for me but I have some great news for you. I reached 100 followers!!!!! Why is that great news for you? Blog Candy!!! Just leave me a comment, be one of my followers and you will be entered in the drawing. Don't forget to come on back for Jillian's Birthday Blog Hop which starts tomorrow, the 10th until the 13th. Come back each day to see a new project and another chance to win some more blog candy. (Yes, there will be several winners).
