10 Minute Craft Dash Birthday Bash (8-7)

Posted in Uncategorized by

CD_23Hi everyone!

Celebrating, playing along and blog hopping today with the good folks from the 10 Minute Craft Dash and friends.

If you have been hopping with the crew, you should have arrived here from the blog of the talented Thuy Bui. If you are new to the hop, welcome! 🙂

If you are new to the 10 minute craft dash, here’s the scoop on this fun little challenge. It’s a good one! You start by  pulling out whatever you want to use and then you get 10 minutes (just 10) to go to crazy town and make something crafty good!

So the challenge this time is a birthday theme Here’s what I came up with in 9 minutes and 10 seconds.

I sorta lived on the edge with that “Thinking of You”sentiment (from Simon Says Stamp!). But you do think of people on their birthday, right?

The funky frame of sorts was cut with a hexagons frame die from Simon Says Stamp! I just die-cut it twice, snipped off the edges and layered it together. It’s funky, but it works! 🙂

Alright, that’s all I have!
