Ok well not exactly!  I'm going on about my birthday again, but I'm going to show you a few of the very lovely cards I got for my birthday!  I threw myself a pre-party and invited some gals signed up under me and they brought me these great cards.  To find out how you can be part of my fab group of demonstrators, click HERE.

The first card is from the very talented Christy McMillan, from Burlington.  Count on Christy to always do something beautiful and elaborate!  Love the use of the Hodgepodge Stylized Silver Hardware and the new Scallop Edge Punch.

This card is from Nancy Giesbrecht, from Burlington. Nancy's cards are always so intricate  (notice how the petals are cut out and glittered up!) and pretty. Love the colour combo on this one (celery, pumpkin and chocolate) and how the ribbon is knotted.

  This super cute card is from Moira Sands from Caledonia.  She is always trying new techniques that I love to copy.  This birthday card uses the word window punch to make a pop up for the chef.  When you open the card the chef pops up…too cute!  I love the colouring you did on this too Moira!

The next great card is from Madiha Nolan from Oakville.  She is very clever in her designs (look at the great way she made the tag with the framed stamp set) and I love how she matched all of her colours, right down to the kraft cardstock and hemp twine.  This card uses two of the new in-colours: riding hood red and baja breeze.

The final card I want to show you uses one of my favourite design templates. This card is from one of the sweetest demonstrators I know, Ruth Baker from London.  And she has more energy than women half her age! And I love how she pairs together two of the new in-colours, kiwi kiss and pink pirouette (so pretty and fresh) with my all time favourite colour, chocolate chip.  This design is a great one that can be mixed up with almost any stamp set and colour pairing.

Thanks Ladies for your good wishes.
