Think Spring Blog Hop

                               resource.jpg
Welcome to the THINK SPRING BLOG HOP!!  You should have arrived here from the amazingly talented Crafty Baskets !  If you just happened upon my blog, be sure to go back to the beginning at Creations With Kathryn . She is our wonderful host for this hop!  On to my project: I decided to make a Spring mini album to showcase a few pictures that I took at the Zilker Botanical Gardens in Austin, TX.  What is more telling of Spring than flowers?!   I used the Card/Tag feature on the Paisley Cricut cartridge and used paper from the DCWV Spring cardstack. (I think this stack was from last year or maybe even the year before! :-) I'm just finally using it! )  The paper flowers throughout are from the 3 Birds Pretty Petals collection.  Read to the end of this post to find the link for the next blog to hop to and for my blog candy!






This is a pic of an open page.

Now for my blog candy!!  Just leave me a comment on this post with a way to contact you - you don't have to be a follower unless you want to - and I will pick a winner by random.org on Monday! I'm giving away a little boxed set of homemade Valentine cards and some Valentine candy!  

Thanks for stopping by today and here is your link to the next awesome blog in our hop: Stephanie's Scrapping/Stamping Card Making site !

Be My Valentine Blog Hop

Hello everyone and welcome to the "Be My Valentine" blog hop!! This is the first blog hop that I have had the opportunity to participate in and I've had so much fun!   If you arrived here from  Macy Bella Designs  then you're on the right track.

There are even some blogs that have blog candy - (like ME!)  After you check out my project, your next stop will be  Crafty Baskets  . Now, on to my project!!
