Happy Birthday, Monica!

Welcome to a Surprise Birthday Hop for Monica Hunter! Monica is the owner of Hambo Stamps and tomorrow is her birthday. A few of us got together and decided to throw a little surprise party for her, and we would like you to join us! If you arrived here via Beverly's blog, you are in the right place. Otherwise, please start at the beginning with Jenn's blog so you don't miss out on any of the fun!

Every birthday has to have presents, and this one has one for you! One random hopper that completes the hop will receive a Hambo Birthday surprise! The winner will be announced at the Hambo Hoedown on Wednesday, August 17.

Here's my card for Monica:

I love this stamp (Harvest Moon hee hee) & sentiment combination. I've had it for years, and it never fails to make me smile. :) Speaking of which, THANK YOU, Monica, for making such great stamps and fulfilling my irreverent need. You guys ROCK!

Your next stop is Libby's blog!

A perfectly Leslie snarky card :)
I don't know if you meant to do it, bit I like how you cut the patterned paper so that the pattern borders the left and right sides (vertically). Neat-o!!!

Monica Hunter said...

YAY Leslie!! Thank you SO MUCH for being a part of my surprise birthday blog hop! I'm going to have one of those headaches you get from smiling too hard for too long, because I'm just so thrilled to be thought of on my birthday, and to see all of your beautiful (snarky) cards on this hop! You girls are the BEST!! (And like June said, I love how the DP provides a perfect frame on your card. I LOVE it!!)
