Sending Warm HOPping Thoughts!!

Hey everyone, and welcome to this month's My Favorite Things new release HOP!! Tonight's hop is a long one, but I am POSITIVE that you will find tons of GORGEOUSNESS along the way, as well as have an opportunity to win some blog candy.....FUN!! The hop started at Kim's Blog, as always...and if you are here now, you should have come from the MEGA talented and AWESOME, Megan's Blog!!

Since this hop is CRAZY long, I am going to keep this SHORT, but sweet!! My job this month is to show you the super cute new Flopsey set, Ice Skating Flopsey. He/She is so cute this month and I LOVE the way the sentiments are done!! What a talented bunny to be able to skate a sentiment into the ice....hehe. He sells for $9, and comes with several sentiments, and his own little ice-covered "pond".

Well, that is it for me for now!! Next stop on the hop is the FABULOUSLY talented and SUPER SWEET, Erin's Blog!! Have fun, and thanks for stopping by!!

More Teasers and a Sketch!!

For my card, I started by using this week's Wednesday Stamp Club challenge!! It is the first challenge of the month, so it is an AWESOME sketch(SCS Keyword MFTWSC12012010) by Cindy. I stamped my image, one of the accessory images in the From The Bottom Of My Heart WTG set. My balloons were then paper pieced using some Cosmo Cricket Early Bird DP. I then used the same papers on the background, and my circle panel. Cardstock colors on this card are Crushed Curry, Certainly Celery, and Red Hot. My ribbon is from MFT, brads from Michael's, and my spiral clip is from Creative Express.

For the inside, I used a sentiment from the Clearly Sentimental About Love set. It is FULL of AMAZING sentiments that say EXACTLY what you want to say to the person you love the most. I stamped the balloons again, but I only paper pieced the one...fun, huh?!
