CropChocolate.com Design Team Blog Hop!

Welcome to the First {official} Crop Chocolate Blog Hop.

Good morning ladies!! It's nice to have you here today!!!  I am happy to announce that I have been chosen as part of the CC Design Team.  I'm still amazed by this fact!

If you stumbled upon my post by accident and would like to start at the beginning (you've only missed one stop, but it's an important one), please go to http://blog.cropchocolate.com/.

Crop Chocolate is a one-deal-at-a-time website that sells AWESOME(!!!) scrapbooking/paper crafting supplies at reduced rates.  The selection is amazing, and the people there are great.  It's like a little family.

The project I made for the hop was six thank you cards for my breast cancer walk.  It's really three different designs, but I make two of each sometimes varying the paper or embellishments I use.  I've been trying to make the cards I send to my donors, and have been using as many challenges as I can do get them all done.  I hope you like these. 

All the patterned paper for these is from BG's eva (this keeps growing on me every time I use it).  The pink paper is from MM watercolor set.  The flowers on the top set are Making Memories glitter clears, and I used MM mini silver circle brads to attach the larger ones (they are also layered with smaller ones).  The pink ribbon flowers are from OT (Oriental Trading), as is the pink ribbon stamp.

Please browse my other projects and posts, leave comments and click to follow me on my DT and scrapping journey.

From here, you will visit with corriew - Corrie at: http://www.corriescrafts.blogspot.com/.  And then she will send you on from there.

Don't forget to stop back at Crop Chocolate when you're done to win some AMAZING blog candy (A Slice machine, 2 Design Cards, and other scrappy goodness).

Thanks for visiting and Happy Hopping! :)

    Congratulations on being selected for the design team! I think it is great that you are participating in the 3 Day Walk (for at least the 2nd year in a row if my memory is correct) AND that you are trying to make all of your own thank you cards! Your thank you cards are very nice. I'm sure the recipients love to receive them. Thanks for sharing with us.
