Just Ducky: Happy Birthday Denise...

Welcome to Denise's birthday party hop!

If you've come here from Mariska van der Veers blog, then you're on the right track.

If not, start at Iris's blog so you don't miss a thing!

Today (May 16) we are celebrating the birthday of one of the best stamp company owners out there: Denise Lynn of Whimsy Stamps! To show our appreciation for Denise's kindness, the Whimsy family and previous guest designers are holding a birthday party blog hop using some of the amazing Whimsy Stamps products that we have grown to love. Thank you, Denise, for giving us the opportunity to represent a company with great products, wonderful customer service, and most of all, an owner who truly cares about its artists and designers. You are the best!

To show some appreciation to the Whimsy customers for helping us celebrate Denise's birthday, we are giving away a $25 Gift Certificate to Whimsy Stamps store. Just hop along, leave a comment on the birthday blog posts by May 21, and a random winner from the comments left on participating blogs will be chosen to win the gift certificate. The winner will be posted on the Whimsy Stamps blog on May 22. For today's birthday hop I used Picked Sweet. I have really been in a beige card mode lately. The flowers are Prima and Wild Orchid Crafts. The stamp is coloured with copics. I used the fab sketch from Sketch and Stash.

This hop is rather large, so here's the hop order in case you get lost:

You've done a brilliant job with adding the little black on a gorgeous taupe card. I adore the black around the sentiment and the stunning flower on the bow! I'm so lucky to be working with you at Whimsy!
