Sweet 'n Sassy Birthday Blog HOP!


I hope you all enjoyed a joyous Easter weekend:) Mine was great, lots of time spent with family.
Today we are having a fun Birthday blog hop!It's Korin's birthday today, (the owner of Sweet 'n Sassy) so come help us celebrate her special day! The image I chose to use is called Spring Mailbox and you have a chance to win your very own digi of it by leaving me a comment! I will randomly pick one person tomorrow to win it:) Be sure to visit the rest of the DT as each of us are giving away a free digi, so you have lots of chances to win some free images just by commenting. And don't forget to visit the Sweet 'n Sassy Digi blog too, there is a today only freebie you won't want to miss:)

I had fun making a different size card than usual, this one measures 3"x8". I also enjoyed making a pretty little tissue flower. I used a small scallop Nestie to cut 6 scalloped circles out of tissue paper and just glued and bunched them together adding a button to the middle. Easy and it's so sweet, if I do say so myself. I colored my image with Copics and the paper is from K&Co. I hope you enjoyed your stop here and don't forget to leave me a comment for your chance to win:) Happy Hopping!
So sorry the link weren't working! They are fixed now:)

Wow. Great flower. Don't have the round nestie yet, but have the oval scalloped. Think I'll try one to see what that may turn out like. Love the little bird in the mailbox. TFS.
