Michele’s 50th Birthday Blog Hop Bash...


Today is a pretty fun day over at Cas-ual Fridays!  Today starts the celebration for Michele's 50th Birthday!  I am joining in with a group of amazing women to do a little partying.  If you are falling along on the hop, you have come here from the sweet, Shona Chambers' blog.  You can stop by the Cas-ual Fridays blog to see a fun list of stops on the hop.  

Cas-ual Fridays started as a Challenge blog so many years ago and I was so lucky to be on the design team.  And then one day, Michele started designing stamps and I was so honored to be on her first stamp team!  I am really happy to be here today to be able to say Happy Birthday to my sweet friend! 

Michele, here is a birthday card for you!

Cas-ual Fridays

When I saw these little chicks, I fell in love!  They are so adorable and make for a quick, clean and simple card.  This card was so easy to create.  I lined a white card base with this fun, colorful pattern paper.  Next, I lined up the chicks in my Misti and stamped the perfectly centered chicks.  I masked off the sentiment and stamped it in 3 pieces so it would fit next to the main image.

Last, I kept the chicks simple and white so they would stand out on the colorful cardstock.  I popped them up on foam tape for some dimension.

GIVEAWAY

Michele has a very generous giveaway today.  She is giving away 5 - $50 gift codes to the Cas-ual Fridays shop.  One will be chosen from the comments on the Cas-ual Friays blog.  Four more lucky people will be chosen from the comments all along the hop, so don't forget to leave a comment on each blog.  Comments will end on April 23rd at 11:59pm EST and Michelle will chose winners after that time.

Your next stop on the hop is over to the talented Jeanne's blog.  So glad you stopped in today!  Have a great day!
