Happy Birthday, Michael!

Well, today is a big day in our house. It is the final day for the 2009 Spring/Summer catalog, the day my eldest son will be drawing a name to see who wins the Itty Bitty Buds stamp set (you can enter by commenting on any of my June Blog entries before bedtime tonight -7pm). And most importantly it is my baby's 1 st Birthday.

I hope you have enjoyed all the cards and scrapbook pages posted recently. Check back tomorrow for a link to the NEW catalog!!! Or contact me now if you want to know how to get your own copy.Stamps:

Mount the large Old Olive to the black card front and then mount the Baroque embossed image on the old olive. Tie the old olive ribbon around the card, top to bottom in a knot. Thread your hat pin with pearls and crystals from the pretties kit, pin through the know and secure with clutch. Mount the sentiment to the small old olive cs and then to the small black cs. Punch two 1/8" holes in the lower right corner using your hand held punch, insert rhinestone brads and secure. Mount to lower right corner using stampin dimensionals.

I am giving away a brand new, die cut, unmounted stamp set this month - Itty Bitty Buds (hostess level 2 ) and some assorted 1 yard pieces of ribbon. Everyday this month I will also be posting a card or project sample featuring a retired set here on my blog. All you have to do to be entered to win this stamp set and ribbon is leave a comment on any of the June entries. The more entries you comment on, the more entries you will receive in the contest. I will randomly choose a winner June 30th.

In addition, anyone who places an on-line order through my SU! website this June will receive 5 entries into the contest. So, be sure to check out my blog daily, and if you see something you like you can contact me or place an on-line order. Remember these stamp sets are gone for good as of June 30th.

Good Luck and Happy Stampin'!
