31 Days of Halloween
Day #27
Happy Birthday to ME!!!
Yes, today is my b-day

I'm not ashamed to admit that I'm 46 years old :)
Age is only a number...
It's how old you feel inside that matters.
Today I made myself a birthday card
with a cupcake on top!
Stamp Credits: All are from Just For Fun Rubber Stamps.
And be sure to check out my post over at Altered Pages - Celebrate!
Here's a peek at my card over there...
And now time for my Birthday Give-A-Way...

The first three sets has a stamp, a couple sets of brads and a sticker/glitter embellishment set.
The forth goodie has a fun Halloween Embellishment set and some way cool brads with various Halloween sentiments spelled out.
To be entered to win one of these sets of goodies,
Post what your favorite part of Halloween ~ it could be the candy, the spooky goodness, the costumes, parties, etc.
My favorite part of Halloween is the spooky goodness...
it's the only time of year when it's fun to have the pants scared off of you.
I could watch a spooky movie any other time of year but it just wouldn't be the same - LOL!!

Good Luck Everyone!!
My favorite part is seeing all the creative costumes. Happy B'day, Roni!

My favorite part of Halloween is the decorations--including the outdoor ones, making the night a bit eerie along w/ the early falling darkness and the sight of tricker treaters going door to door. AND the candy! LOL.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday wishes! My favorite part of Halloween would be seeing the excitement on the faces of little children. Thanks for all your creative ideas & inspiration.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite part of Halloween is watching the kids have fun.
At first: HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I hope you have fun with family and friends *hugs*. What a brilliant, colorful birthday card; the skull card isn't less lovable *gg*
ReplyDeleteWhat I love most on Halloween? I guess, it's the mood in general: the shops, the blogs, the whole surrounding is full of lovely, creepy gadgets and decoration. One is overwhelmed by lots and lots of inspiration, whether it's crafts of all kind, delicious recipes for meals, cakes and candy, lovely costumes for children and pets, then - of course - new stuff to work with like stamps and to visit halloween events (like "the real halloween celebration" on the castle of Frankenstein in germany)
Thanks a lot for this amazing giveaway and have a nice day!

Happiest of Birthdays, Roni! Love BOTH of your fab cards and how sweet of you to offer gifties to US! My fave part of Halloween is putting out all of the decorations I've been collecting for years!

ReplyDeleteMy favorite part of Halloween is the fact that on the 31st the vail between our world and the other world become "Thin."

Happy Birthday, Roni! I love all the decorations and creative things people make for Halloween. It's all the skeletons, creepy creations, and fun ideas people have. Like a few skeletons climbing up the wall of a house, or a giant spider hanging from a tree - ready to pounce, or dusty spider webbed apothecary jars. P.S. My birthday's tomorrow - October is a good month, isn't it! :0)

Happy Birthday, Roni. I love the spooky card you made with the cupcake Very clever. My favorite part of Halloween is helping my daughter choose her costume and then helping her get ready.

ReplyDeleteHappy birthday! My favorite part of Halloween is the abundance of fall favorites--children dressed up asking for treats and their dogs dressing up too, anything made with pumpkin, and the crispness of the southern California air.

Hi Roni and a very Happy Birthday . Sorry I am a day late but I was busy preparing and having a fabulous pumpkin party yesterday. That's my favourite part of halloween, my big pumpkin party. I try and grow a whopper and this year had a very respectable 21kg (44lb)star of the show. Fed 35 people and partied til the wee small hours. Pumpkins everywhere with a few ghosts and bats and skull thrown in for good measure. And of course CAKE. Got to have a bit of cake. Great goodies. Thanks for the chance and have a fab birthday week
ReplyDeleteI hope your birthday was happy!!! Spooktacular card...love the Sugar Skull!
ReplyDeletethis year it has been the kid costumes...my 2 yr old is by far the cutest though! Happy Birthday!!

I am a member of the PTA at my childrens' school and we had the Halloween party last night - the best bit about halloween for me, is seeing the kids all dressed up and ready to party! It was great to see some home made costumes last night - so many of the kids were in shop bought fancy things but a good few had been a bit crafty and made their own - was a great night! mo xxx
