Shimmerz's Birthday Blog Hop

If you are participating in Shimmerz's blog hop and have arrived here from Stacy's blog, then you are well on your way. If you haven't and would like to participate in the blog hop for a chance to win approx. $80 in Shimmerz's product then you will want to go back and start at the Shimmerz blog then make your way to each Design Team member's blog, leaving comments and collecting all of the code words along the way.

We hope you have enjoyed celebrating with us!!!

In honor of this birthday celebration, I created a layout of my nephew blowing out the candles on his birthday cake. Don't you just love those animated cheeks?

I used Sea Foam Shimmerz Spritz on Heidi Swapp invisibles paper (see photo mat) and painted the polka dots on the ribbon with Shimmerz Blingz in Pixie Dust.


I created my own bling cardstock by spritzing Baby's Breath shimmering spritz on my cardstock. The foam thickers were painted with Pixie Dust Blingz.

Now for the moment that you've been waiting for...your final code word is TEAM

Remember, to qualify for the grand prize, you have to visit all of the blogs starting at Shimmerz, leave comments on each blog along the hop, and then send the completed phrase to shimmerzpaints@live.com

As an added bonus, I am giving away a $15 gift certificate to Scrapbook.com!! Anyone who comments in this post between now and midnight (EDT) Friday, June 19th will be eligible for the random drawing. Good luck and most of all....have fun and be inspired by all of the eye candy you will be treated to along the way!!!

My photo
I live in New Jersey with my husband and our 2 sons. I work full time as a Medical Technologist and volunteer for the Community Emergency Response Team in my town. I've been scrapping for the past 8 years and I truly love it because it allows me to combine my love of photography and my love of paper into one art form. I love teaching scrapbook classes and providing freelance work. Please contact me via email if you are interested in commissioning my services: tanisharenee74@hotmail.com
