Birthday Bash, Day 1 Print

Hi There!

It's time for our {Birth}Day 1 FREEBIE and CHALLENGE! Today's freebie is a fun game, a download, and a challenge all rolled into one. I'm hoping it'll get us all in the mood to par-TAY, AND I'm hoping that a few more of us will show our lovely faces around here (ahem, you know who you are, you shy thing!)

The First Birthday Freebie

Here's the fun freebie I made for you:

(So sorry, the freebie download link has expired.  But you can still get this goodie at our shop! Yay! )

Birth-Day1 Challenge (and June 22 CAD too!)

Here's our challenge for today! (For those who are doing the June Create-A-Day Challenge, this is the Day 22 challenge for you!)

Look back at the progress you've made since you began your digital journey - or if you're new and are just starting out on this incredible path of preserving your memories, record your feelings right now.

Then create a layout that celebrates this wonderful ongoing adventure in our lives!

Upload your challenge layout to our Challenge Gallery (please include the title Birth-Day1 Challenge or JuneCAD-Day22 in your file description title). Then skip along to the sticky thread  in the General Forum (See the June CAD-Day 22 thread) and post there to let us know that you've uploaded  (so we know when to run over to the Challenge Gallery and leave you love!).

 Party Game Time!

All parties have fun games, don't they? We've got a real fun party game here, too! Here's how we'll play today:

1. Unzip the freebie pack you've just downloaded.

2. Print the template above and make a party hat. Then wear it and have someone snap your photo! (Or push the self-timer button of your camera. Or hold your camera at arm's length and shoot away. We just want to see you in your birthday hat!)

OR

3. If  you're eating cookies on the dark side and want a digital birthday hat, go ahead and design one with the .psd freebie, prop it on top of your head on a photo, and that's just as good!

4. Sing, dance, eat some birthday cake, and then upload your photo of you in your birthday hat to our Challenge Gallery! (We just might have something special to give at the end of our birthday week  to all who are spotted wearing their birthday hats in the gallery today! >wink!)

Hope you have a wonderful time today, and don't forget to come back tomorrow for our brand-new challenge and freebie and lots more fun!
