That's right folks, today we celebrate the birth of one of HDH's Macabre Minions, Andrea !  Happy birthday, girl!  Obviously you haven't received your card yet, since I haven't sent it, but maybe me posting it today will be of some comfort :) Who DOESN'T want a cocktail on their birthday?  Come on... at least one, right?  I just LOVE this Tickled Pink image, Lilith... and I thought the look on her face summed up what many of us feel about birthdays :) Not that Andrea feels that way, but you know what I'm sayin'. I hope your day was fantastic, Andrea... thanks for all you do here at HDH, and have a cocktail on me!

My bad.  This was supposed to be posted yesterday. :) Over at the Simply Betty Stamps challenge blog , we are doing a super easy challenge!  So you should be able to play along... just create a card or project for Mom.  See, I said it was easy. Here's mine: Yeah, I'm sure my mama will give me a smile over this one ;)  VERY fitting, no?  I used my new uber-awesome iron gate punches from MS... just  a bit around the sentiment.  I LOVE those things!   Digi/stamp:  SGKW Birthday Sally Rubber stamp:  Trendy Greetings (TAC) Paper:  DCWV, Caboodles White & set D cardstocks , OLD paper from stash Other:  VersaFine Onyx ink, Copic markers, MS punches, Micron pen So, since Mom's Day is tomorrow, do you all have your cards done?  If not, whip one up and link it up over at Simply Betty Stamps Challenges !!!

... sounds kinda dirty, doesn't it?  ;)  MUCH more fun than just a mere birthday bloghop, no?  Me & a couple of the Minions are doing a little Fiendishly Festive Friday Frolic to honor the Devious Digital Demoness ' birthday today, Susan !  Susan does SO much for HDH, from writing up the challenge posts, to finding WONDERFUL little gems for Fiendishly Fun Fridays, to cracking us up with comments and suggestions.  We love ya' baby! I know this little card isn't much, and of course you won't be receiving it in the mail today, but you will eventually!  I had hoped to create some bit of awesomeness like Creepy Glowbugg, but time once again slipped away from me... and she has all of that natural talent an all :P All of the stamps are from The Angel Company , Palette inks, EK Success edger punch, Cricut diecut fence & of course... Stickles.  Susan loves purple and sparkly things, so there you go :) Happy Birthday, Susan!  I hope today ...

Yep, it's Friday, so it's time for another Simply Betty Stamps Challenge! Our challenge is using any SBS image: anything Birthday of course!  Three lucky winners will be chosen to receive TWO Sweet Gothic Kids Rubber Stamps (the link is for the digi listing, but you can see the images!).  For exact details and the challenge linky, please go to the SBS Challenge blog . Now, my project today is actually a gift bag hang tag... and it's a biggie :)  Probably about 9" tall me thinks.  BUT I was trying to use up scraps without having to cut much... I'm lazy like that sometimes ;)  What is nice is that this also qualifies for my HDH MACABRE MONDAY Body Bags & Toe Tags challenge for this week!  Yeah, I KNOW... I got to play along after all :) This is Alex... my favorite of the SGK Birthday images... I can't wait for you to see the Easter ones. O.M.G. Becky... they are sooooo cute!  But you'll just have to way a week or so for those {insert si...
