It's Your Party Blog Hop

Welcome crafty friends. Today we are celebrating a very special birthday. Today is Angelica's birthday! Happy Happy Birthday Angelica! You are such a sweetheart and I wish you the BEST day EVER, you definitely deserve it!!!!

If you came here from Heidi Anne's awesome blog then you are in the right place. If not make sure to start at Kathy's blog so you don't miss out on a thing!

I thought that I would make Angelica a card using some of "her" stamps. If you don't know already Angelica is one of the owners of an awesome stamp company called Market Street Stamps. She illustrates beautiful stamps and makes some of the most gorgeous A2 sized background stamps I've ever seen. I LOVE them to pieces!. Anyway, here is Angelica's sweet and simple birthday card.

Isn't that birthday cow the cutest? I absolutely LOVE this darling stamp set. It is called For All it's Worth by Market Street Stamps. And that pretty background is one of those beautiful A2 sized background stamps I was talking about called Sweet Lace.

Your next stop on the hop is the sweet and talented Viv. Click HERE to go to her blog.

This is a LONG hop because Angelica works with and is loved by a LOT of people. Here is the big list in case you happen to get lost along the way:

Monday Madness... Imagine That (Congratulations on Your Baptism)

Hello My Creative Time friends and welcome to another Monday Madness... Imagine That. For these projects we always make something with our Imagine Machines or something Imagine like if we don't have an Imagine. I don't have an Imagine so I used patterned paper and a background stamp to make my card Imagine like. 

Emma had asked us to use the colors chocolate, teal and red. I also got to use her Many Greetings stamp set. I LOVE this set because it has a little bit of EVERYTHING on it! This was PERFECT timing for using this stamp set too because my daughter just got baptized on Saturday and it had the perfect sentiment for that. The girl on this card may look a little older than you might expect for a baptism card, but in my church children don't get baptized until they are 8. My little paper doll's darling face is from the Happy :Lashes Face Assortment by Peachy Keen Stamps. I also did some clear embossing on her dress with the Sweet Lace background stamp by Market Street Stamps. I really love the white on white effect it gives.

Make sure to hop on over to Emma's blog to see what she and some of the designers have for you today! Have a wonderful day! Hugs- Glora

Just a Note...

This is a quick and easy card I made for the Market Street Stamps Color Challenge.

I love this sweet cow from the For All It's Worth stamp set by Market Street Stamps. The background is one of their gorgeous background stamps that cover the FULL surface of an A2 sized card. This background stamp by Market Street Stamps is called Sweet Lace.

Livestrong Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Livestrong Blog Hop. If you just came from Monica's blog than you are in the right spot, if not, the beginning of the hop starts with Maria.

Our projects for today are to focus on hope and encouragement. I wanted to make some small note cards that were simple, bright and cheerful for my project. I hope you like them. All of them were embossed with clear embossing powder.

This first one uses Follow Your Dreams stamp set by My Creative Time and the Loopy Loo Polka background stamp by Market Street Stamps.

This one uses Turn That Frown Upside Down by My Creative Time and Paisley by Market Street Stamps.

This one is My Favorite Sayings by My Creative Time and Sweet Lace by Market Street Stamps

This one uses Pain Pain Go Away! by My Creative Time and Punched Tin by Market Street Stamps.

Here is a picture of all of them together.

I have a small giveaway of Circle dies for your Cuttlebug (pictured below). All you have to do to have a chance to win is leave a comment on this post by Monday morning and have a US or Canada mailing address. I will pick a random winner on Monday, May 9th.

Your next stop on the hop is to Martha. Click HERE to go to Martha's blog.

I wanted to mention that Emma over at My Creative Time has just released a special stamp set that coincides perfectly with this hop. I wanted to post a picture of it and a link to her blog. By purchasing this stamp set, you are partnering with "My Creative Time" to help stamp out breast cancer. For each set that is purchased, My Creative Time will donate $2 to Susan G. Komen for the cure! Click HERE to check out this stamp set.

I'm glad you could stop by. Have a great day.
