It’s My Birthday!

This month I’m celebrating my birthday! Well actually two birthdays (as a friend pointed out I am Queen Pip so this is only reasonable) one for my real birthday, and huge thank you to everyone who is #imbringingbirthdaysback and has sent me a handmade card – so gorgeous on my shelf, and I’m also celebrating my 5th birthday with Stampin’ Up! so I get some extra bonus points from them and a pin apparently is on its way! How smashing is that – I love a pin.

I’m truly honoured and so very grateful for all my friends and customers who sent me a card, gift or birthday wishes – it was a great week! I received cards from demonstrators all over the world – what an amazing community I’ve found with Stampin’ Up! and what a fabulous birthday trend Shannon West has created with #ImBringingBirthdaysBack – my post man was very happy too to be delivering something other than bills or direct mail!!

I’d love to showcase them all (alla Shannon) so I’ll be getting them all photographed and loaded up on Pinterest – and I’ll let you know when they are there for you to go and name them as yours! In the meantime I will be posting some on Facebook too – so keep an eye out on Queen Pip Cards’ Facebook Page.

But are You a Winner?

Since it’s the time to give gifts, I wanted to announce the winners (yup plural) from my Incentive Trip Blog & Facebook Post comment giveaway! At the end of May I got to go on the Stampin’ Up! Incentive Trip, and I was showered with gifts, so I promised to give some away to those who commented on my blog or Facebook posts. Thank you to everyone who left me a comment, and I’m pleased to announce the following winners selected at random from those who entered (drum roll please….)

• Sharon Cole – Tin of Cards stamp set
• Maggi Smith – Little Foxy DSP stack
• Barbara McGee – 5/8″ (1.6 cm) Mini Striped Ribbon (Watermelon Wonder)
