Birthday Bash Challenge

Hi Everyone -- Happy Anniversary to Nichole and Papertrey Ink. Someone pinch me -- I cannot believe I am still rubbing elbows with these ROCKSTARS! And you thought 2009 was exciting at Papertrey Ink.....Hold onto your hats people -- 2010 is going to be a whirlwind of FUN at Papertrey Ink. My stamp designs are going to be a great addition to your Papertrey Ink collection of stamps and I am sure you will go GaGa over them!

As a Papertrey customer, I anticipate the sneak peeks every month and I love those fun surprises Nichole has in store during her countdowns! Nichole does such an amazing job with the reveals! I sometimes SHOUT at my computer! (good things!!!)

I am also showing my new headshot -- It was amazing at CHA that I would meet people and they looked *exactly* like their photographs...and other people looked nothing like them. Some people told me that I didn't look like my photograph and I realized that my old photograph was a year old! I decided that an updated photo was in order - so my daughter took this the other day.

Let's get down to BIZ-NESS! Here is the birthday graphic I created for the Anniversary Celebration. I uploaded them to a remote server so that you can download them to your computer in a single sheet for printing or a set of four (I know I *always* make mistakes, and I figured you would want to have a few to play with - so go for it!)..... I cannot wait to see what you create with this one! I figured you could print it on the beautiful Papertrey cardstock -- or even print it on white and color with copics! Be sure to go back to Nichole's { blog } and post your link to participate in the Anniversary Challenge! And let me know what you think of this little design.....do you like it?

{Make A Wish - single copy}
{Make A Wish - large sheet}

Here is the card I created with it - using Bitty Baby Blessings designer paper, Lemon Tart and Aqua Mist cardstock, along with some Lemon Tart satin ribbon!

{here is the fine print!}

Each member of the 2010 Papertrey Stamp Designer Team has created a birthday image for you to download, print and utilize as an embellishment for a handmade birthday card, wishing Papertrey a happy birthday! After creating your project, upload a photo of it to your blog or online gallery, then proceed to Nichole's blog and link your photo there within the Mister Linky box provided. You can enter one project for EACH designer's graphic, so you can have up to NINE entries total, meaning nine chances to win!

Don't delay, because you only have until Wednesday February 3rd, 7am EST to enter this contest! An amazing prize package including SEVEN of the best selling stamp sets (a $159 value!) from Papertrey's designers is up for grabs, so you want to be sure to add your project to the list before the deadline arrives! The randomly selected winner will be announced by noon the same day on the February Release Winners page. Have fun and good luck!
