We are having another blog hop at Clear Dollar Stamps...this month's theme is "Sugar and spice and everything nice, That's what little girls are made of"...I wanted to use this beautiful flower garden set that was just released on Wednesday...It comes with three different coloured flowers...I chose to use the purple flowers because I've been in a purple mood lately...Purple is a colour that doesn't get used a lot in the scrapbooking/cardmaking world! But I was channeling my grandmother I guess...her favorite colour was purple (she passed away almost 4 years ago now)...my daughter and I were having a discussion and she said her favorite colour was purple! So I guess it was in my brain to use purple!
Anyways, this is a sad blog hop for me...because this is my last one for now with CDS...I have stepped down from the team...I didn't want to...I had to think long and hard about it...but in the end, life just takes priority over my creating time and I just wasn't working up to my standards and I didn't want my teammates to have to pick up my slack...it just seems like these next couple months are SO busy...and I just won't have as much creative time as I'd like. So, with a saddened heart, I had to email Lori and Laurie and tell them the not-so-nice news...but don't fret! I will be creating MANY more cards and projects with the WONDERFUL images that I've been given during my time at CDS! I was so happy to work with the crew at CDS....they are a creative and friendly and caring bunch of ladies! And might I add VERY talented!
Okay, so back to the hop...you wanna know about the PRIZES! Two lucky winners will each receive a $10 gift certificate for the CDS store for purchase of clear or digital stamps ONLY. The winners will be randomly chosen from comments received on two DT member blogs. Winners will be announced on the CDS blog Wednesday, June 22nd.
Here is your hopping list:
