Card of the Week Challenge: Happy Birthday!

by Susanna on August 30, 2010

Welcome to the new and revised Card of the Week blog!  I hope to keep the inspiration coming, but this time, I want you to share!  Here’s the idea:

  • I’ll post a theme each week.
  • You have all week to link up a picture by commenting on this post.
  • Card of the Week readers will vote on their favorite and that card will be featured in the Card of the Week gallery.

Of course, this is a new idea, so we’ll be tweaking the game plan as it goes along.

Challenge number one:  birthday cards! Free Smiley Courtesy of www.millan.net

Everyone needs these cards — we need fancy birthday cards, kids cards, masculine cards, quick cards, funny cards, loving cards, “you’re old” cards…. the list is endless.  As card makers, I’m sure you know that you will NOT have that card handy when you need it!  Well, let this challenge be your inspiration.

Comment below with a link to your birthday card and I’ll post it here.  Next Monday, I’ll announce the winner of Card of the Week and give you a new challenge.
