♥ Simon Says.... Happy Bithday! ♥

That is this week's challenge over at the Simon Says Stamp Challenge Blog! Create a card or project with a Birthday theme!

For my card, I used the adorable Happy Birthday Cupcakes Cling stamp from Hero Arts, as well as some Hero Arts pearls, some papers by Basic Grey and Prima. The cupcake was colored in with some Copics. I also used some Martha Stewart Ultra fine White glitter and MS Border Heart punch. And finally, I love to use Maya Road Kraft envelopes on my birthday cards, especially if I'm giving money or a gift card. They make an awesome way to give a little gift inside!

The winner of this week's Simon Says Stamp challenge will win a $50 Gift Voucher to the Simon Says Stamp Store!
                                            
And, lastly, the winner of my Sewing Machine giveaway is......

♥♥♥♥♥♥ Amanda Adams ♥♥♥♥♥♥

Amanda, please email me your snail mail addy! If I don't hear from Amanda by Sunday, the 20th, I will pick a new winner!

Have a wonderful day!

Hugs...
