The Paper Temptress and Firecracker Designs are joining to hop today. The theme for our projects being Open Road .... using some of our favorite traveling songs. As you can see, I'm using this great bird house image called For The Birds by Firecracker Designs and my song choice to go with this image, although a little bit of a stretch, is Bob Marley's 3 Little Birds.... click the play button on the 'juke box' below if you can't recall the song.... I bet you know it! I've used The Paper Temptress Heavenly White Ultrasmooth paper to print the image on, then colored it with Copics. This paper is a dream to color on!! The dark blue paper under the image is also from The Paper Temptress, Dark Blue Leather... another totally amazing paper!! Seriously amazing! The pretty gold ribbon is also from The Paper Temptress aka the Ribbon Temptress!!
Hop Details:
This is a “circular blog hop” where the beginning is wherever you happen to start!! You will know you are at the end of your blog hop when you’ve come back to the blog you’ve started from! (It’s not a huge circle…so it should be easy to remember where you started.)
The winner will be chosen from a mystery blog hostess that we don’t even know who it will be until the hop is over…so that’s why you’ll want to leave a comment on EVERY blog, so you don’t miss out!
**To find out if you’ve won… you will be contacted by Pamela via e-mail (so be sure to leave it with your comment.) and you can also find out on Pamela’s blog after the blog hop ends on Mon, at 8:00 PM (EST).**
