Girly Birthday Blog Hop!

Welcome to Candace's Girly Birthday Blog Hop!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CANDACE!!!!!

You should have arrived here from the non-birthday girl Candace from Paper Crafts by Candace. If you did not, and would like to start from the beginning of the hop, please visit the BIRTHDAY GIRL Candace at Scrappin' 2 Little Princesses to start.

I am so unbelievably excited to be part of this hop celebrating the birth of the wonderful Candace from Scrappin' 2 Little Princesses! I was extremely honored when Candace asked me to be part of this fun hop. Thank you Candace and....of course....HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

Before we head onto my project for this hop, I wanted to remind you of a few important items (**cough cough** BLOG CANDY **cough cough):

Our two sponsors, Pink by Design and EAD Designs, have graciously offered up two fantastic prizes to two winners this weekend (one prize to each winner). There is a $15 Gift Certificate from Pink By Design and a $20 gift card to EAD Designs up for grabs. In order to be qualified for the prizes, you must comment on ALL of the blogs in the hop by 11:59 CST (12:59 MST) on the 22nd. That's it - easy peasy! :)

Our theme for this hop was "girly birthday". EAD Designs, one of our fantastic sponsors, offered to send some of their wonderful stickers to the members of this hop. A HUGE THANK YOU to EAD Designs for being so generous!! As I searched their site (and drooled over the stickers on their page) I stumbled across this set of stickers entitled "Land of Make-Believe". Once I saw these adorable stickers, I was immediately inspired not only by the characters, but by a sentiment from the KinderStampO "Friendship" stamp set. Add some fun little stickers from EAD Designs' "Funky Frames" set...and...voila! A very tongue-in-cheek girly-themed card:

Recognize these lovely ladies? ;)

This sentiment makes me laugh everytime I read it...I mean, after all these stories these ladies have...they must have something in common, right? :)

Supply List:

Stickers: EAD Designs' "Land of Make-Believe" and "Funky Frames" Sticker Sets

Stamp: KinderStampO "Friendship" Stamp Set
