Cheers to you, dear reader!
Hiya friends! Today is a special day and I wanted to share a little card and a little surprise. First, the card:
You might remember that my card for The Paper Players on Sunday, used a fun color combination? This was the card that had these colors on my desk! Daffodil Delight, Strawberry Slush, and Coastal Cabana with small accents of Lucky Limeade (olive) and Pumpkin Pie (citrus slice). The Happy Hour stamp set has not seen nearly enough ink in my craft room so I decided to remedy that and show it a little love!
Stamping these drinks and their garnishes is so much fun. In fact, I wish I had 3 drinks at this point to excuse my crooked stamping but alas...it's just crooked! LOL. You'll excuse me in a minute when I tell you my surprise....see, today is my birthday and...a few weeks ago I passed my 4 year blog-o-versary so....it's time for....BLOG CANDY!
Yep, I decided that on my birthday I would give a present to YOU my wonderful blog readers! Cheers to you--for all your support and encouragement! What is the blog candy, you ask? The retiring stamp set, Nature Walk and a full roll of Gumball Green Satin Stitched Ribbon could be on their way to you. All you have to do is leave a comment on today's post. Comments left before 5pm on Thursday, May 30th will earn you a chance in a random number drawing (one comment per person, please). The winner will be announced on Friday, May 31st! So, let's hear it: what do you think of today's card?! Or, happy birthday works too (tee hee)! Have a great day friends!

Nance, Great card...and nothing is crooked when you have a cocktail, right? Too cute.
PS: I 'almost' sent your birthday card using that set! How funny is that. However, I made another... but it is going to be late... I'm such a stumper and forgot about the holiday. dah. The nature walk is so nice set and goes for gals or guys too. What great blog candy.. thanks for the chance.
Can't believe you've been blogging 4 years..wow.
I love your three cheer card. It is so refreshing and original. Your card always give me inspiration to stamp more myself. Happy Birthday! Penny
Cheers to you girl! Blog-o-versary (who knew there would ever be such a word?) and birthday celebrations are in order for sure! The card is perfect for a celebration - 4 years wow! Me too this summer - I can't believe it! Enjoy!
First, happy birthday, Nance! And congratulations on your blog anniversary. That is my next goal- to put up a blog. And, I LOVE your card! I have that set, too. It looks like a ton of fun and like you, mine hasn't seen much ink. But what a wonderful inspiring card you made! Perfect for summer get-togethers. Thanks for your offer of blog candy, too. Hope your birthday is wonderful.
I was drawn to you card as soon as I saw it [I think it was the punched circle treatment you used] and then to read it was birthday & blog-a-versary, too, was quite a topper! I'd LOVE to win your blog candy so count me in on the celebration.

Happy Birthday Nance! Love the card. Its a neat design and I think fairly easy too. That's the best part plus its so colorful. I think my M&T ladies could make one. TFS and have a wonderful birthday!
Love your cards and the inspiration that you freely provide. I have the digital Natural walk set, but no bee, no eggs - and sometimes you just want to emboss. Great Candy! Thanks!
Happy, Happy Birthday Nance,
Love ya. Great card I'll have a "cheer" for you later today, hope you have one too!
Luv,
Mom
