Jamie's 30th Birthday Bash! Back to the 80's

Hey everybody!!!
 Welcome to 
We are hosting a Back to the 80's Themed Hop for our DT Sister Jamie of Jamiek711 Designs, it's her 30th Birthday Today!
Happy 30th Birthday!
If your here from Trixie's Blog then your in the right place.  Have a great time with our blast from the past projects!
 
SOOO--who remembers waking up every Saturday morning and singing LA LA LA LA LA LA- LA LA LA LA LA! to your favorite cartoon!? I know I do! I loved the SMURFS! Here is my Smurfy birthday card for Jamie:
 



(I do not know where this SVG came from. I downloaded it years ago from someone's blog..and I do not remember who it was. I will not share the SVG because it is someone else's work and I do not feel that I have the right to give someone's work away. I apologize in advance.)
 
I used Jaded Blossom's SWEET BIRTHDAY WISHES stamp set for the sentiment and both of the FLAG DIE and FLAG DIE 2.
 
How fun is this hop!? Are you getting a blast from the past? :)
 
I also made Jamie a "J" in fun wild 80's zebra print! Added a touch of glittery tule and it is TOTALLY AWESOME!!
 
 
How about some blog candy!?
 
Jaded Blossom is giving away a  (non-peachy) Simple Sayings stamp set!
