Birthday Blueprint !

Good Morning!
It's not often I get a chance to share a card that isn't for any of the Design Teams that I'm on, today though is an exception. I made this card made yesterday afternoon when I was meant to be making something else ... however that didn't go to plan so in the end I made this lol
I have used the Tim Holtz Birthday Blueprints set as I was in the mood to make a Clean & Simple card and these designs work perfectly with that style.
INGREDIENTS -
Tim Holtz Birthday Blueprints Stamp Set
Winter Assortment Sprinkles by Doodlebug

700 Followers & 300,000 Hits Candy !

Good Afternoon!
A rather unexpected post from me today for you all. 
I was having a look at my Blog Stats this morning as I haven't done so for a good few months and I was surprised to see that I now have 700 Followers along with reaching over 300,000 Hits! 
So to celebrate I had a snoop around my Craft Room and I have put together a little Candy Giveaway. I know it's not as much as some people offer but it's a selection of some of my favourite Embellishments that I like to use on my creations along with a pair of stamps.
I hope you like it!
To be in with a chance of winning this bundle all you need to do is follow these simple steps -
Oh and don't worry, you don't have to live in the UK to enter.

1. Be a Follower - I know it sounds pretty simple but considering the candy is partly to celebrate my followers, I would like the goodies to go to one. If you are not one at this moment in time but would like to become one then that is allowed, just don't un-subscribe once the candy has finished lol
2. Link - Pop a link to your Blog in the Linky Tool so that I can add you to the draw, I can also come over and see your creations too! 
Please also add a link to the Giveaway on your own Blog.
3.  Deadline - You have until 6pm London Time on the 26th of July to enter.

Thanks for popping by, enjoy the rest of your day ... it's time for me to head to work!
HAPPY CRAFTING!
