Double D - Anniversary / Birthday

 Hello Dear Friends!

It's time once again for a new challenge over on the Double D Challenge Blog!
 
Here's today's theme:

 9th Anniversary/Birthday

We are celebrating NINE years at Double D!
This is the first challenge that Diane and I created together.
Create a birthday or anniversary project
 
and here's an inspiration board created to help get you started . . .
 
 
 
 We are very proud of our challenge blogs and this blog was the start of it all!  We can't take everyone enough for all their support and participation.   Next year will be our 10th so we'll have to come up with something very special for that one but for today, here's what I've created to celebrate our 9th.


I've used the Lisa Horton 'Celebration Balloons' 3D embossing folder and coordinating stencil and Tim Holtz distress oxide inks
 
   
The sentiment die is Elizabeth Craft #1054 Happy Birthday which I die cut once in black and once in white then overlaid for dimension.
 

 


You'll want to be sure to pop over to the Double D Challenge Blog to see all the details and amazing samples offered up by our VERY TALENTED design team ladies!!

 Thanks so much for stopping by!
Hope to see you at Double D! 

  As always . . .
