When this challenge blog was started up there were very few other challenge blogs around....now there are hundreds, covering every style and stamp range. Here on Cute Card Thursday we chose to embrace anything that is cute.  Over the years we have seen DT members come and go, but I am pleased to say that there are still Five of the original DT with us...and I joined just before the blogs 1st Birthday.

So this week we would like to see your Birthday Cards, and the added challenge is that they are for a THREE year old.
