Pop over to the Challenge Blog and sign up as a follower and see the prizes Phindy is giving away for this hop.....ALSO, several DT members have candy also  (and it is SWEET!)
The Blog Hop Draw closes on Thursday 15 April at midnight GMT (7pm EST).

Now it's time for you to meet the DT - here's your list for the hop. If you get lost on the way you can come back here and see where you should be!

I am so delighted to be accepted on Phindy's first Design Team!  awesome talent I will be working with...now THEY will keep a girl on her toes!!!

Well, I've babbled enough.....here are my cards ....

printed digi onto blue dp from stash and matted on SU's Bold Blue with ribbon from AC Moore (i think)

and those of you who know me....know I can't do just one for a blog hop!!!
so here are a couple more....with Phindy's " Something New" image

had to do one for the "girls"  (-:
GKD's cardstock "Innocent Pink", "Chocolate" and stash dp.

and one for the "we dont know yet" mothers...
this pic makes the green look almost black, sorry - it's not really that dark - it's SU's Handsome Hunter along with Basic Grey stash and GKD's Lemon.

well, hope I didnt keep you too long and hope these stirred up the "mojo"...
Happy Hopping!

have a blessed day,
