Title: Spring is for the Chicks!
Hostess: Plain Jane (Jane)
Keyword: MAR12VSNF
Day/Date: Saturday, March 10th
Time: 1:00 PM EST
Spring always makes me think of buds and flowers, new leaves, and fuzzy baby chicks! In my family, we also have a bunch of spring birthday chicks (the girly kind, LOL), so I wanted to honor all the spring �peeps,� young and old!!!
Here�s my challenge for you:
Build a card for your favorite spring birthday girl! Use pastels, floral patterns, lace, flowers, bling...all the pretty, girly things you want...in fact, the more fussy and frilly it is, THE BETTER! Pull out all the stops and celebrate the chicks in style!!!
VIEW THE GALLERY FOR THIS CHALLENGE HERE!!!
UPLOADING INSTRUCTIONS:
1. ALL VSN CREATIONS MUST BE UPLOADED BY 10:00 PM EST ON Monday, March 12th.
2. You have 45 minutes to complete the challenge.
3. Please remember to put in the correct keyword...
MAR12VSNF ...when uploading your image. Copying and pasting the challenge keyword is recommended to avoid typos.
It is also
highly recommended that you post a link to your creation in this chat thread to be sure it�s seen.

OKay, I had to check the calandar, then remembered, my Mom's birthday is the 27th of April. Have two others in April, but guess Mom would definitely qualify for favorite!
And she would qualify for fussy, lacey card too!
So will try to come up with something!
Thank you for the Chick challenge! I was afraid I was going to have to have a chicken!

Well, after I came up with the idea, I realized I DON'T DO FUSSY-GIRLY either. So challenged myself, too!

It's more of a
guideline than a requirement....no cringing required for this!

Girly, without a whole lot of fuss. Wish you could see the glitter, though--really makes it.

Girly Happy Birthday
Here's my card. I made it girly by using PINK, tying a bow and using a jewel on the cupcake. Sorry the pic is kinda bad, I used my cell phone camera.
