Sweet Treat blog hop

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

Our theme this time is "Sweet Treat"

We are having a little twist this month! Some of our designers are adding some sparkly sequins to their projects. As you move through the hop, count up how many sequins were used among all the cards. Email your answer to Faith:(faith@fromtheheartstamps.com) for a chance to win a $15 voucher to the FTHS store!
Also, as is usual, please leave a comment on each blog. One random commenter will be selected on each blog to win an image of choice from the FTHS store.

If you have arrived here from Imke, you are in the right place. If you haven't, why don’t you start at the From the Heart Stamps blog, so you don’t miss anything. The full hop list is there too.

For my project, i've used the accent image from Chocolate Box Birdbrain to create a gift tag...


I coloured my image with promarkers, I printed the image 3 times so that I could layer them up with foam for dimension. The sentiment is from the same set too.
I've used papers from Curiosity Corner by Dovecraft, and added some sequins - can you see how many?
I finished the tag by setting an eyelet and adding some glittery swirl ribbon from my stash.

I'm entering this tag at:
Penny's Paper Crafty - anything goes
Simon Says Stamp (weds) -anything goes
Crafty Calendar - anything goes

Now, please head over to Kathy's blog to see what sweet treat she has made :)

I hope that you enjoy hopping with us today.
The hop will end on Sunday, April 10th at 6am EST (11am UK time).
Winners will be posted on the From the Heart Stamps Blog on Wednesday, April 13th.
Good luck, and happy hopping! xx
