Happy 21st Birthday Ashley!

Welcome to Day 2 of Ashley's 21st Birthday Blog Hop!

We are so glad you could join us! If you've come from Erica's blog, you're in the right place! If you have just come across the hop and would like to start at the beginning, please visit Ashley at Made Especially For You.

This weekend we are celebrating Ashley's 21st Birthday with some fun and creative, birthday/alcohol-themed projects! It's not 21 without a drink or two, right?!

When Ashley asked me to join this hop I was thrilled, BUT I had no idea she was only going to be 21. How exciting! Oh to be young again! I do not remember too much about 21, except I was still in college and planning to get married. Seems so long ago!

For Ashley's Birthday I made... a scrumptious looking pink martini for her first birthday drink...remember no drinking and driving! Me...no need to worry...mine would be alcohol-free...I don't drink unless it is Coke Zero (or milk).

I had no idea that martinis came in different colors since I don't drink. They even have blue, green, and yellow.

A little glitter, a stick pin, and some pink crinkle ribbon

Other Materials:

Recollection paper

white, red, pink, and silver card stock

My Craft Spot stamp

pink ink

pink glitter glue

Elegant Edges Cricut cartridge ~ scalloped circle

SVG Cuts ~ martini glass (freebie)

We have 21 fabulous sponsors providing 21 fabulous prizes for those who hop with us, and because there are so many of them, we have included all the prize information in the second stop of the lineup. Here is a peek of some of the sponsors...

Crafting with Blue Birthday Hop

Happy Happy Birthday Rhonda!

Rhonda asked a special group of scrappy friends to join her in celebrating her birthday with a blog hop. You are going to find a ton of inspiration among this talented group!

She is celebrating another birthday and turning a year older. I don't know if that is a good thing or not, but let's help her celebrate and enjoy the day. Can you hear her singing now..."It's my birthday and I'll scrap if I want to, scrap if I want to. You'll scrap too when we're all thru."

If you came from Marji then your in the right place. If you happened to stop by, please start at the beginning with Rhonda, so you don't miss a thing.

Here is my birthday project...

I used the following sketch from Sketch Saturday.

I cut my butterfly from the Serenade Cricut cartridge at 1 3/4" and adhered it to a Lacey Circles Spellbinders. All pattern papers are My Mind's Eye.

This is also my Die Cuttin' Diva Design Team project since both events fall on the same day. This week's challenge is "Anything Goes".

Thanks for stopping by and checking out my work. Please head on over to Sher, so you can see what she has made.

But before you go please finish reading so you know how to enter for the prizes. Please stop by the sponsor's pages and let them know you appreciate their generosity.

First AWESOME sponsor...Lisa from Scrapping with Lisa designs. She is going to be giving away a $25 gift card to her store. You can get tons of awesome svg files with that gift card.

Jen's Birthday Blog Hop

It's the Purple Scrapbooker's Day...that is Jen's day for a fabulous blog hop with wonderful projects to help celebrate her birthday. If you came from Star's Paper Passion you are doing a great job hopping along. If you just happened to visit today thank you for coming back, but why not join in and enjoy the crafts and goodies.

I chose Jen's favorite color (purple) and my favorite color (brown) to create a birthday card.

Here are the supplies I started with.

I layered the My Mind's Eye paper and then added the floral.

This is a close-up of the floral. I pieced together the brown, purples, and blue florals and secured with a small brown brad.

The sentiment was cut from the Wild Card cartridge at 6 1/2". Small brown brads coordinate with the floral and the foam pieces add dimension.

Happy Birthday was also cut from the Wild Card cartridge (6").

Happy Birthday Jen!

What is a blog hop without goodies? Since this is a birthday celebration, the present (prize) will be a surprise. Of course, it will be crafty related (paper, ribbon, buttons, gems, etc). Here is a little twist...usually everyone asks what your favorite/best gift was, but for today I want to know the worst birthday present you ever received. Not too long ago I posted about the "tool" my husband gave me. It was for that time I ended up in a drain field and needed to escape from my Jeep. Hmmm...still hoping that doesn't ever happen and I never need to use the Houdini tool.

Be sure to leave a way for me to contact you. You may leave your blog and/or e-mail address. Looking forward to hearing your stories.
