Birthday Wishes

Hello everyone! It is Danielle popping in with a celebratory card. I played along with this week's challenge and used some pretty designer paper that has oodles of banners on it. 

I colored Cinnamon with Copic markers and paper pieced her hair bow with some designer paper.  I was in the mood for texture so I cut an oval from burlap paper to place behind the trimmed image.  I also distressed some edges and added some wired loopy burlap trim.

Be sure to check out the Cupcake Challenge and Bingo! You have until September 10th at 12am EST to email your list of 24 TSG sets before Bingo begins. 

Celebrate

What's a birthday celebration without balloons and a cute bear!  I love all the props in the new Life is a Circus set! I positioned the balloons in his hands to look like he's being lifted away by the balloons. 

There She Goes Stamps is sponsoring Seize the Sketch for the next two weeks. I used this week's sketch for my card today. 

Supplies Used: There She Goes Stamps (Life is a Circus and Handwritten)

Be sure to check out the Cupcake Challenge and Bingo! You have until September 10th at 12am EST to email your list of 24 TSG sets before Bingo begins.

BINGO!!!

And now are you ready to play a game???? We are going to play stamp set bingo!!! 

 The way we are going to play is you will email me(Jessie) a list of your 24 stamp sets. They will be on your board going left to right starting in the top corner and going across til we get to the bottom(basically, the way you read is the way it will be filled out). There will be a free space, so we only need you to pick 24 sets. 

So if you sent me stamp sets 1 2 3 4 5, that would be the first line of your bingo card, 6 7 8 9 10 would be the second, 11 12 (FREE SPACE) 13 14 third line, 15 16 17 18 19  fourth line, and 20 21 22 23 24 as your final line. 

Email your list of 24 sets by September 10th at 12amEST, and I will begin announcing three sets a day until we get our winners. You will keep track of what you have chosen, and I will keep a master list of what you have chosen, too, so I can double check for BINGOS!

 I will update the page every day when the new sets are picked!! There will be two winners! 

The first person to get bingo(diagonal or horizontal) will win a $25 gift certificate, then we will go to black out(entire card filled) which will win a $50 gift certificate!!
