Stamper's Dream & Friends Blog Hop

I'm incredibly honored that Michelle asked me to participate in her Stamper's Dream & Friends blog hop today! Having the opportunity to join forces with these talented ladies is nothing short of exciting for me! I've known Michelle for a few years now and she carries all those great stamping supplies you want & need at StampersDream.com. You'll get super fast shipping and great customer service too! During this hop there will be some hidden blog candy along the way, so keep reading to learn how you might win!

I made 2 cards today using this adorable Penny Black Easter March stamp that you can find at StampersDream.com. I had so much fun coloring this fun image! I used Copics and created the background using a plaid embossing folder with some small green & yellow ink pads. I stamped alternating squares of color on the top portion only of the embossing folder, then carefully closed it over the cardstock and ran it through my Big Kick machine. I love the look you can achieve by using your embossing folders this way. If you click the photo to enlarge it, you'll see the glossy accents & stickles I added for interest.
Here's the 2nd card I made. For this one I used 2 MS hydrangea punches to create the vellum flowers and pulled out the sewing machine for some stitching around the edge.

There are 2 hidden blog candy prizes in this hop so you'll want to visit all of the participating blogs and leave a little love. The winners will be announced on the Stampers Dream blog on Thursday evening, April 14th as well as on each blog where the candy was hidden. Look at what you'll have a chance to win.....
This is the first hidden candy.....
And here is the 2nd! Who wouldn't want to win these yummy goodies?!

Here is the list of participating bloggers, so have fun hopping! Be sure to check back on Michelle's blog Thursday to see if you're a winner!

Love, Love, Love the glossy accents on the hedgehog. The flowers are gorgeous on the second card. You inspire me every day. I hope to get back to schedule tomorrow. Actually my "babies" are going to have their teeth cleaned tomorrow so I don't know how I will be for the day. I do know I will be a wreck as they have to put them under to do this. Keep your fingers crossed for them, please. Talk soon. Hugs
