Happy Birthday -7 Kids College Fund - Big News!!!

Hi all, and a Very Happy Wednesday to you!! Today I'm, back to share some Super exciting news and a fun card and Challenge too! ;-)  Today is my first post as an official 7 Kids College Fund DT Member!! Whoo Hoo!! I'm So thrilled and honored to be a part of this Fabulously Talented team of Super Fun Ladies! Yay!! 8-) And today kicks off a Brand new Birthday Challenge over at the 7 Kids College Fund Challenge Blog! Woot Woot!! 8-) So come join in the fun! Whip up a fabulous Birthday creation & head right on over to the 7 Kids Challenge Blog to link it up for a chance to win a $20 gift certificate to the store!...8-)
I stamped my Sweet little PB Hedgie from the Hello Friend Clear stamp set with Memento Tuxedo Black onto Bright White Express it Blending CS and colored him up with my trusty Copics. I added my fluffy clouds withTumbled Glass Distress ink, my favorite cloud template & a small stippling brush. I cut this little Cutie out and scored the edges with the help of my Score Pal for a nice clean look and popped him up with a bit of foam tape.  For my mats and BG layers, I chose a combination of kraft & pink CS from my stash, my Ranger Snow Cap Paint dauber, the Stylized Flowers EF and some Darling dp's from Echo Park's For the Record Tailored 6x6 collection. To finish it all up I added my PB Party Time sentiment onto a fun banner die cut tag, and a cute little button all tied up with some Yummy Limeade Doodle twine. And the Awesome Sketch is Karen Giron's SSSC177..8-)

 Here's Miss Karen's Fab Sketch...


Here are the items I used for my project today...


Hope you all have a Super day & Thanks so much for dropping by! 8-)
