Happy 14th Birthday to Us!

 

 

 Hello Monday, my friends! And welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge. Thank you for joining us for the  Four Legged Friends  Challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too.

Please join me in giving a warm welcome to Carrie Swift of Redfire_Studios, our guest designer for August. Welcome Carrie!! 

Since it is our birthday, we are showcasing all the amazing products from the fabulous Simon Says Stamp this week! We would love to see you use some Simon  in your makes and join the celebration! 

This week the challenge is: HAPPY BIRTHDAY

 (It's the 14th birthday for the Monday Challenge - WooHoo!!)

Summer time calls for watermelon colors! I thought these would be fun for my 14th birthday card to celebrate our challenge. I've had the honor of being on this amazing challenge with an awesome team for 9 years. I love creating and sharing with all of you! 

I added a bit of doodling around the lime background after I rounded the corners. I also added a bit of white on the pink pennant,. 

I think the white line makes this pop out. I also added black brads and popped this. 

Let's add a butterfly to represent the "metamorphosis" of our Monday Challenge over the years. I think it gets better each year, and that is because of all of our followers who create and share their wonderful takes on our themes. 

I found a #14 metal token to add and some pearls to match the butterfly. 

Love the dimension of this butterfly... 

I went for a bright and cheery look for my card. So, Let's Celebrate All of YOU!!!

Happy Birthday!!
