A Birthday Parade with Ten Birthday Projects

Today is one of the most special days of the year. It was a cold Saturday morning [mumbles] years ago when my parents (and the world!) were first graced with my presence – what a joy I was and have been ever since (if I conveniently exclude the awkward middle school years)! I still remember when 20 year-olds were old. I’m WAY past 20 now – yet I still feel so young.

Celebrating My Birthday with You

There are two ways I’m sharing my birthday with you:

  1. A Gift for You. If you place a Stampin’ Up! order with me today, I will send you a handmade thank you card. If you place a Stampin’ Up! order with me today over $50, I will send you a thank you card and a little gift to show my appreciation. If you place a Stampin’ Up! order with me today over $2,000, I will send you a thank you card, a little gift and…wait for it…a roll of ribbon. I would LOVE to make lots of thank you cards over my holiday. 🙂
  2. A Parade for You. I’m hosting a fun parade of 10 birthday cards I’ve shared this year. You don’t have to buy a thing to experience the joy of the parade. ♥

Now it’s time for the parade. Some of these birthday-themed cards are formal, some are playful and some are beautiful. You can click on any of the photos to see the original post for each project. Crank up the band and enjoy the parade!
