Simon Says.........Happy Birthday!

wed-newchallenge-header
Happy Wednesday!  It's time for another challenge at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday blog!


Our theme this week is Birthdays, and, by the way, it's our 7th Birthday!  The design team are all using Simon exclusive products, and we'd love it if you would, too, but it's not a necessity to enter.


supplies: white cardstock, Simon Birthday Flowers, Jellybean, Hero Arts Bubble Gum, Cornflower, Altenew Deep Iris, and Warm Sunshine inks, Simon Stitched Circles die

Since my first card is so feminine, I made another that is a little less so, more generic:

supplies: white and black cardstock, various My Favorite Things design papers, Simon Happy Birthday and Celebration Time dies, stamped sentiment from retired Cupcake Party clear stamp set, white twine

Now it's your turn - I can't wait to see what you create!  In honor of our birthday, sweet Heidi has provided SEVEN $50.00 gift vouchers


Simon's 7th Birthday

These cards are so awesome Linn, how do you manage to gest them looking so crisp and perfect. If I was to try this it would end up looking like glue land I swear. Totally love the sentiments all over the front of thecard and the balloons on top.

This birthday card is really very cute. Thank you so much for sharing it here with us. I love making cards. Last week we celebrated our daughter’s birthday at an event space Chicago and gifted her a similar card. Glad as she loved that.
