Happy 3rd Birthday Papertake Weekly Challenge!

Welcome to the Papertake Weekly Challenge's third birthday blog hop!  I have been with the challenge team for just a bit over a year now and I am thrilled to be able to celebrate with them.  Hopefully you arrived here from Dawny's blog, if you didn't you might want to pop over to the Papertake Weekly challenge blog to get all the details and hop along with us.  Now before I get to all the prize info I want to let you know about this weeks challenge.  This week you get to choose any challenge from the last 3 years to play along with.  I choose the challenge from the last week in September of 2009, my first challenge as a permanent member of the team.  That weeks challenge was "Black and White, plus one".

Welcome to the 100th Color Throwdown Celebration!  I was so pleased when the girls asked me to play along with them for their big celebration.  Today if you visit all the blogs (see the list below) you have the chance to win some amazing prizes that have been donated  by various companies.  My prize that I will be choosing a random winner for will be a $25 gift certificate from You need to have commented on my blog before midnight on July 12th EST to qualify for the prize.  You also need to play along with the challenge to use Regal Rose, Certainly Celery, Real Red and Baja Breeze on a project and put a direct link in Mr Linky over on the Color Throwdown blog .  Now if you don't have the exact colors don't worry, just use the closest you have. On my card I used Our Daily Bread Designs; Scripture Series 1 stamps set.  The verses in this set where selected from various verses submit by members of SplitCoastStampers that Kelley, the owner of ODBD, then made into this fabulou
