Birthday Blog Candy!

Hello friends! It's been a fun year so far... I've passed my 2-year bloggy anniversary (March; although my first year+ is kind of sparse in the posting department); been lucky to be on design teams with fabby ladies; and watch my own card-making style evolve into something I really love. I've "met" countless wonderful people and I'm amazed every day to see your projects. I am inspired by *you* each and every day!

Since I'm looking at another candle on my cake this month, I thought I'd give *you* the presents. I know, I know, all the presents should be coming my way, right? Hahaha! Maybe I'm having a senior moment, then. (Am I allowed to blame things on "senior moments" at fabulous 42?)

Here is what I offer to you:
Blog Candy Contents
  • Magnolia Ink Magazine, Fairytale Edition
  • Magnolia Fairytale Tilda stamp
  • Martha Stewart Heart Punch
  • Prima Flutter Vine
  • Yards and yards of lace (thanks to Grandma)
  • Tons of mulberry flowers
  • Assorted embellishments
Here's how you can become eligible - Please follow these requests!
  • Post my candy on your blog - either in a post, on a sidebar or on a blog candy page (like mine, above)
  • Link your Inlinkz entry below to your blog candy post or blog candy page *or* your main page if you placed my candy on your sidebar
  • Look through my 2010 archives and tell me a card you really like (see sample entry at #1 below).
  • Become a follower *only* if you want to keep up with me. (I would rather have real follower "friends" who like what I do and want to share what *they* do, too. I'm quirky like that! *grin*)
  • Enter by May 31 at 11:59PM
So that's it. Pretty simple! This is open worldwide to everyone with blogs. I want to see you, too!

Cheers,
Susan

  1. Hey Susan,

    just wanted to say.. I'm also 'age-old' (will turn 42 in June *lol*)

    So... 'HAPPY BIRTHDAY' and keep up your wonderful work! I really love everything you create (seriously!!!) That's the reason why I'm a follower already *smile*

    Have a great birthday month :)

    {hugs} Sylvia

  2. OH to be 42 again, but i can still relate, i am hating getting ever closer to the big 50.Trying to avoid the clock ticking away at time, trying to deny the wrinkles and memory slips, ha ha
    Enjoy whatever age we are girls!

    I'm turning 51 this month and dreading it...I remember my 40's..oh I loved those years, before every part of me started to fall apart LOL

    Your cards are just gorgeous and it was really hard for me to pick a favorite between your Tilda Easter Card and your Home for the Holidays card...Home for the holidays won out..I love anything to do with Christmas!
