One of my FAVORITE people is celebrating a birthday soon, and what better way to CELEBRATE her then with a BIRTHDAY BLOG MOBBING!!

Kim’s, the MFT lady, birthday is the 5th, and the girls at MFT and I have decided to MOB her with as many cards as possible!! Today’s Mob started at Arlene's Blog, so head on back there to get started!!

Happy Birthday Kim, we LOVE YOU!! You are the kindest, most generous, and AMAZING person to work for and have as a friend. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for believing in me, and always being there for all of us! I am THRILLED to know you and to work for you, as well!

For Kim’s Birthday card, I decided to use the SUPER CUTE, Enjoy the Ride set. I stamped her on X-Press IT Blending Card, and then colored her with my Copics. I paper pieced her shirt with some Lilybee Designs Happily Lost paper, and then layered her with Cotton Candy, Rose Red, and Black Licorice. My other paper is from the This&That Lilybee Designs pack. My ribbons are both from SU, and I used the Double Scallop Border Die-namics, for my border. I used the Pretty Posies Die-namics to create my flowers. My brads are all from Michael’s, and my spiral clip is from Creative Express.

For the inside, I used more of the same supplies, and a sentiment from the Clearly Sentimental About Birthdays set.

Wanna know who this SUPER adorable and CRAZY talented lady is?? Well, head on over to Kim's blog to check her out....after you look at my card, of course!!

I hadn't had a chance to ink up the CUTE new Pretty Pocket Stamp Set and Die-namics, so I KNEW I wanted to use it as a friendly and SUPER EXCITED hello to our new member!! I used the die, and cut out my pocket from Fossil card stock. I paired it with some Lilybee Designs Picket Fence paper. I then paired it with Grape Jelly and Sour Apple card stock. My twine is also from MFT, Honeydew and Lilac. My brads are from Michael's. I stamped the flowers on X-Press It Blending Card, and then colored them with my Copics and cut them out. I also used this week's Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge.

For the inside, I used a sentiment from the Clearly Sentimental About Friendship set. I also used more of the paper, another flower, and one more brad....I just love them!! LOL!!
