:: A Birthday Sundaes Goodbye and challenge! ::


Hello Birthday Sundaes fans!

This week is an extremely sad Birthday Sundaes challenge for me
as today will be the last challenge!

First, I'd like to thank Kristie for taking a chance of having me on the DT --
it has been a truly wonderful experience!  I wish you the best!

I'd also like to thank my fellow DT members --
Amber, Amy, Jo, Kimberly, Maribel, Sue, Tara...
it has been an absolute blast the last 8 months working together
You ladies are the best and incredibly talented!  I will miss working with each of you, but hope our paths will cross another DT again or some other crafty venture one day!

And last but not least.... a HUGE THANK YOU to all of the Birthday Sundaes followers who have participated in our challenges!  Your comments are inspiring and I can not thank you all enough for the constant inspiration through your words and creations -- the Birthday Sundaes challenge have the best and loyal followers!

On a personal level, I will be MIA from my blog for the next two
(possibly three) weeks, as I have ended up getting a promotion at work and will need to focus on that for the moment, but I promise to return with some more fun card creations
as soon as I can!

So, let's get on with this week's final challenge!

Create a birthday card (with sentiment) using NUMBERS!
Our sponsor this week is Birthday Sundaes founder and owner, Kristie Wilson!
She is offering a fabulous stamp set from Some Odd Girl, "Birthday Mae"!

For this week's card, I wanted to use one of my favourite card folds that we used in a previous Birthday Sundaes challenge.


So help us out and celebrate Birthday Sundaes first birthday
and final challenge with a bang!

I can't wait to see all of your wonderful creations!

I'm giving gratitude to Mr Pedro for all of his help in securing our loan for our new home here in Fruitland. You were organized & thorough & professional, as well as kind which made all of the difference in our interactions with you. We put our trust in you and you most definitely came through for us. Thank you for your patience as well as treating us as people rather than just home loan customers. You stand above the rest, I want to recommend anyone here looking for loan or investors to contact Mr Pedro and his staff because they are good people with gentle heart,
