Welcome to my birthday blog hop, hopefully you've been to visit some of the other fabulous birthday cards. If not, please go back and leave some love on some of these super talents ladies' blogs. My favorite color combination is kraft and red, so with a little help from Karen, we've put together a virtual birthday party to help celebrate my birthday, aren't blogging pals the best?? And since no party is complete without some presents, I thought I'd offer up a few fun crafty goodies for our celebration. I've got the PTI Think Big #5 sentiments, a Hero Arts Write Your Message set, Stampendous Mega Merry clear stamps, a couple of Unity stamps and 10 party favors envelopes full of scraps and die cuts. I will draw the winners at random from comments throughout the blog hop and post the winners on Saturday, July 9th. You do not need to be a follower to win, but please check back here to see if you've won. Many thanks again to all the amazing birthday love...
