One of the many reasons I LOVE Hallmark is for their card competitions.   It allows the average person (like me) to attempt to be creative by submitting a card I think Hallmark would enjoy and sell.  Remember the movie Mr. Deeds with Adam Sandler? 

Well, I am Adam Sandler in this scenario\u2026 sort of.  I have submitted cards in the past (simply because it challenges me in new areas in design) to no avail,  but will continue to do so when the challenge seems appropriate.

The newest design theme from Hallmark is-

Birthday Your Way

Make a birthday card you wish Hallmark made.

A birthday card that can be sent to anyone, guy people, girl people, tall people, freckled people.  It can be sweet, serious, funny, cute- sky is the limit!

Those of you who follow this blog will recognize the photo that I will be submitting, from a recent \u2018Wordless Wednesday.\u2019 I just feel it is right for a silly birthday card.  Let\u2019s face it - some people just don\u2019t like birthdays!  What I am asking for is that you leave a comment \u2013 sort of like a caption contest \u2013 and I will pick the one that is most suited for the card.  If, by chance, I do get to be a finalist, then a nice treat will be coming to the person/dog whose comment I use.

Have fun, don\u2019t be shy, and tell me what you really think of Birthdays.  I have one coming up in March that I am not too happy about!
