Hi, my friends, it's time to party because we need to wish a 

Happy Birthday to Through the Purple Haze!!!

Yes, we are 1 year old !!!

Time has really flown by, but as they say "Time flies when you're having fun" and that's what we here at Through the Purple Haze do, have fun!!!  A great group of ladies from all corners of the world having a super good time together.  

Here is my Birthday card to celebrate!

I decided to make a multi-fold card and I think I did accomplish that part.  lol

I used the paper pack Simple Stories, "Vintage Bliss" and used a few different design papers for the mats and I put my image on Recollection cardstock.

I used the Spellbinder's Large Oval Scalloped Die to mat my image.

The Birthday Cake is from a Close to My Heart Stamp Set, "Piece of Cake" and I popped it up, but it really doesn't show in the photo.

I colored my image from Simply Betty " Partying Lola"  with my Copic Markers and I think she was just perfect for this challenge.

The sentiment Happy Birthday is a Close to My Heart Stamp Pack, "Happy Birthday".

The small sentiments were stamped with Just Rite Mini Stamps and cut with a Stampin' Up Punch.

So hop on over to Simply Betty's and get your image to join in the fun here!!  There are some great images for all occasions, check the shop out!!  A big Thank You to our very generous Sponsor!!

Well, I hope you have enjoyed the surprise I have been telling you to keep an eye out for and hope you join in the fun too!!   The DTs have made some awesome creations for your inspiration to get your card or project ready and in the challenge and also go blog hopping with us.  It's going to be a great week.  Yes, a week of celebration!

Cute Puppy

Hi friends, today is Sunshine Mail Challenge.  I have the cutest puppy card to send to the Sunshine Mail Kids, I am sure it will put a smile on one of their faces....  and that's what this is all about!!   Just a card.... for a smile.. makes me have a happy heart!!

I will have to admit that I have used some old paper I have been "hoarding" for a few years and just got the cutest image from Stitchy Bear's Digi Outlet that is one of those "go together" things.  

The paper is from Paper Adventure, Susie Muise, "Paw Print on Pink". 

The card stock is from my stash as well as the ribbon.

 I colored my image with my copics.

I printed my sentiment and used Stampin' Up punches.

So with that  being said, can you take a minute to send a card, make or bought, to Sunshine Mail and put a smile on a little one's face?   Think....... just a minute.   BUT.... to have more fun you can make a creation and join in the challenge and maybe you will win a prize and guess what?????  It will put a smile on your face too!!    So get Scrappin' to make it Happin'  !!

Check out Stitchy Bears Digi Outlet and I am sure you will find just the right image for your card or project.  A great place to shop!!

Well that's it for today,

So until next time

Take care and God Bless.
