HAPPY BIRTHDAY...CHARISMA CARDZ..!!!!! AND A BIRTHDAY BLOG HOP

THIS CANDY IS NOW CLOSED THE WINNER WILL BE ANNOUNCED ON THIS BLOG AND ON THE CHARISMA CHALLENGE BLOG AT 9.30AM THURSDAY
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHARISMA!!!!!



Hi everyone it's Charisma's 1st Birthday!!!! today so the theme this week is
CELEBRATIONS.
My DT card for this week is an Easel card made with K & Co papers, HOTP Celebrate stamp and Anita's May your wishes come true. The image is of course Sarah Kay which I must confess I've altered a little. The pressies were Christmas ones so I masked them out and only used the plain pressies. The flowers are from my stash and the flower centers from The Hobby house, as is the Sarah Kay stamp.


We also have a Birthday blog hop and we hope you will all join in and have some fun and maybe collect a few prizes along the way!!!.


So here's how it works.....Make you way over to the Charisma challenge blog and prepare to be amazed at the absolutely fabulous prizes we have lined up for you to win, and then you start the hop at Carly's blog and go round each DT in turn. There is also a prize on each DT's blog and within each post we each have a different word, which when put together make up a sentence. You have to find these words, make the correct sentence and post your answer in the comments section on the Charisma Challenge blog. Nothing could be simpler!!!!


We have loads of sponsors this week giving away an array of fabulous prizes so remember to check out the Charisma Challenge blog



I am also offering a clear stamp set with a Birthday theme, sticky crochet, assortment of ribbons and ten charms as my prize for one lucky winner who leaves me a comment, and if you like become a follower but it's not necessary. The winner will be announced here at 9.30am GMT on the 7th Jan 2010. and I will ship world wide.

If you've come here from Jan's blog then you're on track, whoo hoo!! and you now need to hop over to Leanne for your next word and another fab prize to win.

Hope you enjoy our 1st BIRTHDAY hop!!!! I'm really looking forward to 2010 and all your crafty creations once more. Here's to another crafty year....Wishing you all the best for Happy and Peaceful New Year!
Good luck everyone and have fun!!!

    What a lovely card, the bright green is so cheerful and Springlike. I think she makes a better birthday than Christmas stamp, well done masking out the pressies, she'd catch her death of cold in that top in December LOL!

    Thanks for the chance to win candy, I'm following your blog, love your work, Happy New Year!
