Happy Birthday CARRI!!!!!!!!!!!

Carri’s Birthday Celebration Hop…February 16th

Welcome to Carri's Birthday Blog Hop!!  I'm glad you could find time to hop along!!!   If you arrived here from Karen's blog you are on the right track.  If you didn't you might want to go to Georgiana's blog and start at the beginning. 

Happy, happy birthday to Carri!!  I just love that girl!!  And I am so happy to be involved in a blog hop to celebrate her.  Please visit all the blogs and end your hopping on Carri's Blog - Doubleclick Connections.  She has some yummy candy to giveaway.  You just need to hop around all the blogs and leave a comment.  The last day to participate in the Blog Hop is February 28th.  There will be individual candy given away on some of the blogs.  (like this one!!)
To celebrate Carri's big day I made this Set of Drawers Card to send to her.  I am on the design team for Crafter's Companion and am lucky to get some of their products to work with.  One of the things I find myself reaching for everyday is the Crafter's Companion Ultimate Tool!  I can't rave about it enough.  It has so many functions and you can make so many cool projects with it.  The next thing I can't live without is the Ultimate Crafter's Companion Advanced Construction Techniques DVD.  This DVD is LOADED with fun projects and Sara is so good at taking you through each one.  She makes them all very easy!!  This is seriously one of the first things I reach for when I want to make something special.
The instructions for the Set of Drawers are on this DVD.  Basically you make 4 small boxes and the 4 slip cases they fit into and then glue them down on a 6x6 piece of paper.  Next you top them with another  6x6 piece of paper.  You then top the whole thing off with a 6x6 easel card.  Easy peasy!
It is fun to put little goodies in the drawers.  There are so many different things you could add like a gift card (perfect size), candy or embellies.  Thanks for hopping by and checking out my set of drawers card!!
To be eligible to win the goodies you must:

1. Become a follower of each participant
2. Leave a comment at each stop
3. Deadline will be Tuesday, February 28th.
A Master List with all the winners will be posted on March 1st.
Here is the list of blogs you should hop around and see:








Stacy ~ http://scrapwithstacy.blogspot.com/  (you are here)

Carri ~ http://doubleclickconnections.blogspot.com/ ***Birthday Girl***

Now if you are interested in winning a little candy from me you just need leave a comment and tell me one of your favorite birthday memories or your favorite birthday present.  AND you MUST leave birthday wishes for Carri on her blog!   Remember you can hop around and leave comments until February 28th.  

The winners will be announced on Carri's Blog on Thursday, March 1st.  I will announce my personal winner here on that date too.  You will have until March 8th to email me your name and address at (scrapwithstacy@gmail.com) if you miss this deadline you will forfeit my candy giveaway and I will probably just give it to someone else!  lol

But wait...I haven't shown you my candy!  Want to see it?? 
I am giving my lucky winner the We R Memory Keepers Sew Ribbon -Flower, 6 yards of Pink Sew Ribbon and 1 pkg of 10 Sew Ribbon needles.  Not bad huh?? 

Have fun celebrating Carri's birthday!!  Now go see Sherrie.

  21. I'm a new follower!

    First, I LOVE this birthday gift you made! Adorable!! Very unique too!!

    I've been contemplating getting the crafter's companion, but have feared I wouldn't use it near as much as I paid for it!! LOL

    Lastly, one of my favorite birthday gifts was from an ex boyfriend (boyfriend at the time) he bought me 2 dozen long stemmed roses and bought 24 scratch off tickets and punched a hole in the corner of each one and attached them to the roses!! Very unique gift that took effort!! :)

    I look forward to seeing more of your crafty stuff!!

    A favorite birthday memory was the year I was dreading turning 30. My dear sweet Lance bought me a cheesecake and candles for the top....a "2" & "9"....I vowed that I would only be 29 from then on out. I cried all night and almost couldn't contain myself long enough to enjoy the cake....LOL!

  46. Hey Girl! This box is so amazing!! We will have to make travel plans so you can teach me how to use the Crafters ultimate tool since I own it yet haven't used it! I cannot even begin to tell you how much our friendship means to me! I so look forward to our sometimes very one sided conversations and now that if we lived closer girl- we would be in trouble! Your kindness and your enthusiasm shows in all your creations and I am lucky to have you as a friend! Thanks for joining me on this special day! Hugs to you my friend! Carri
