Well, hello there! Guess what today is! Give up? Today is my Blogiversary!! I started this little blog a year ago today! Can you even believe it?! My, how time flies when you're having fun!
So, in order to properly celebrate, I definitely think I should give some treats away.....after all, it's YOU that have made this blog so much fun for me! We'll get to the giveaways in a minute! But first, I made a card for Beate's Inspiration Challenge this week! Hee! Can't forget that!
For those big white dots, I just punched out some circles using my 1 1/4" circle punch from Papertrey's vintage cream card stock, to match the card base. So fun and easy. And then before I stuck the black layer on the card base, I trimmed the edges of the circles off.
In fact, I liked this card so much, I decided to whip up 4 more for my card stash box. I can never have too many birthday cards! :) I could have added lots more glitz and glam, stitching, etc. to this card but I decided to keep it pretty simple with the idea that it could be for a guy or a girl.
Thank you Beate, for another fabby challenge! Be sure to pop over to Beate's blog. You don't want to miss out on her creation as well as what the other girls on the team came up with!
