Jen's Birthday Blog Hop

-


Welcome to the CookingWithCricut.com and PaperCraftingWorld.com
Designers June Blog Hop day 2!

Get ready for two days of great projects with each day showcasing different designers and projects. If you have come from Kemma's blog then you are moving along. If you would like to start from the beginning, please head over to CookingWithCricut.com Cookin With Cricut.

This month our hop theme is all about Birthdays and one special one in mind. Our wonderful DT Coordinator Jen Hudson’s birthday just happened to fall on Saturday so we decided to make birthday inspired projects with a “Jen” theme in mind. Our go to gal is a die-hard Florida Gator Fan. So we decided to use elements on our projects that reflected Our GATOR FOR LIFE Gal’s FANCY;  Florida, The Florida Gators and anything that would make you think of the Sunshine State. Jen is the last on our blog line up so be sure to hop through and leave her some extra special love at the end!




I decided to make an alligator shape card using my gypsy and the Animal Kingdom Cricut Cartrige. I added a little glitter outlining and a birthday stamp inside and voila, a simple and fun birthday card!

Be sure to head over to CWC Cookin With Cricut and leave a comment for a chance to win some great blog candy! Now on to your next stop, Hattie's blog!

She is now going to go to a Christian school in the fall for junior high. I can't believe that she is in 7th grade already! I am both sad for me and excited for her. One of my favorite things about homeschooling, besides having my daughter home with me everyday, was using my Happy Planner for lesson planning.
