FTH May Blog Hop

Welcome to my stop on this month's From the Heart Stamps blog hop.

Our theme this month is Get Well or Encouragement

http://fromtheheartstamps.com/community/blog/

As you hop along, please leave a comment on each entry. One random commenter will be selected on each blog to win the image that the designer used. And additionally, one commenter on the From the Heart Stamps blog will be selected to win a $5 gift voucher to the store!

If you have arrived here from Jessica, you are in the right place, if not, why don’t you start at the From the Heart Stamps blog, so you don’t miss anything.

Here is my GD card, using Rainy Day Birdbrains...


I have coloured using promarkers, I sponged the sky with SU inks though (basic gray and a touch of bashful blue)
The papers are by Bella Gypsy 'The Last Key' (grey gingham), and Echo Park 'Times & Seasons' (navy piece)
The borders were made using the Xcut 'diamond' punch.
The sentiments come with the image.

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:
That Craft Place - Anything goes
I Love Promarkers - Not quite straight
Simon Says Stamp - Anything goes

For your next stop on the hop, please head over to Angela, and see what she has created to inspire you.

Thanks for hopping along with us. Don't forget to tell your crafty friends!
The hop will end on Monday May 5th at 6am, EST (11am UK time)
Winners will be posted on the From the Heart Stamps Blog on Wednesday May 7th.
Happy Hopping! xx
