Happy Birthday to....

 TTT!

Good morning blogland

That the new challenge over at Crafty Calendar Challenge is a 'Happy Birthday' one is a nice coincidence for me as it was also TTT's birthday a couple of Monday's ago - just when I needed to be making a birthday card for this challenge! 

Dealing with the challenge first - we are a very easy going blog with really simple rules which are follow the theme, don't backlink and a maximum of 3 entries per person.  That's it really - doesn't have to be a card, doesn't have a to have a particular type of product or crafty item; just make something yourself and enter.

Moving onto the card:


Supplies used:

Digital stamp:
DreamFlare Studios - Mythical Creatures
coloured with my Copics

Rubber stamp:
Woodware Craft Collection - Just to Say; Birthday

Dies:
Un-branded stitched rectangle set
Catherine Pooler - Wishes

Anything else:
very old 12x12 patterned paper

Now for TTT's birthday.  Well what do I say - she turned 19! It feels so strange that this is her last year of being TTT (The Troublesome Teen).  To be totally honest her birthday was a bit of a non-event; we spent the day at home, no party, no friends, just her opening presents and then her favourite meal for dinner. Oh and homemade cake that took me ages to make and no time to eat!

When I was her age it would have been a big party - but it would appear she just wanted a quiet day in.  Not sure I will ever get why a 19 year old doesn't want to party, but hey, who knows maybe that will be her 20s!

I am also open to suggestions as to what she is known as once she's no longer a Teen! Maybe we go back to SheWhoMustBeObeyed (SWMbO)!

Please do pop on over to the challenge blog - my Teamies have made some lovely Birthday cards! 

See you soon,
