Welcome to the Surprise Birthday Party of our friend and digital artist, Guylou. Today is her birthday and she is such a SPECIAL lady that we just wanted to share it with everyone. I have been a friend to Guylou for about 5 years now and feel so blessed to have her as a part of my life. She is Uber~talented and just a sweetheart. We, her design team and friends have decided to honor her with a blog hop for her birthday. I am so excited to be the beginning of this hop with a card using one of her earlier images.
Bernadette is from her Retro Ladies line. She is a very elegant lady, just like Guylou!!!
OK, now we know that you like to find an awesome RAK at the end of a blog hop, so Gina has graciously provided an amazing prize (one pack of 4 copic multiliners, one pack of 2 stardust pens, a black memento ink pad, and a $5 gift card to Guylou's Inimitability) for one winner that will be chosen by Random.org at the end of this hop.
You will have from now until Sunday
October 16th at 11:59 PM EST to complete the hop, leaving comments on all blogs along the way and ending at Guylou's blog to wish her a happy birthday.
You will want to head on over to Carmen's blog now and see what she has created to wish G (as we call her) a very Happy Birthday.
And if you happen to get lost along the way here is a list to get you to all the stops.
Brenda ~ You are here
Guylou ~aka the birthday girl!
The Deets of my card:
I used some of my favorite Echo Park paper from the "For the Record" collection. I thought it fit will with this image. Happy Birthday comes from the AmyR Elegant Greetings stamp set.
