From The Heart Stamps Blog Hop - Sweet Treats!

Welcome to the April From The Heart Stamps Blog Hop!  We've moved the start of the hop to a Monday and it will end at 6am EST on Sunday 10 April.

As you hop through each of the DT, don't forget to leave a comment to be in with a chance of being selected to win an image of your choice from the store.

There is a little twist this month - as you hop through, count up the number of sequins used on each creation.  When you've hopped all the way through email Faith faith@fromtheheartstamps.com with your answer and the winner will receive $15 to spend in the store!

I've used Full of Beans Birdbrain, coloured with Promarkers and then layered onto a panel of Funky Hand papers - Keep in Touch download (retired).  The sentiment comes with the stamp and that's also been layered.

I've used an offcut of card left over from making square cards for the base - I have a fair few of these strips hanging around so I'd better use them!  I've finished off with a fine liner black pen faux running stitch around the edge of the image and sentiment.


Good luck with the hop!  If you've arrived at me from Michelle then you are on the right track!  Don't forget to leave me a comment before you hop back to the blog.  The winner of each blog comment and the overall winner will be posted on the blog on Wednesday 13 April.
