"Phri-days are Phindys" is now ONE YEAR OLD!

Welcome to the Phindy's Place Challenge Birthday Bloghop! It is one whole year
since we began posting challenges on the blog, we can't believe a year has gone by
so fast!
Our challenge this week is paper piecing and the usual prizes are up for grabs,
however we aren't posting the DT's cards on the blog this week, we would love you to play
along for a blog hop and collect a word from each posting. When you've got the
full sentence, please post it in the comments on the blog (which will be hidden
until the hop is over!) and you could win a $10 Gift Certificate to use at Phindy's Place.

You aren't required to leave comments at each blog, but we'd love it if you do
leave some love for the DT! Blog Hop is open until midnight (GMT) 28 April.
So this week, you have THREE chances to win: the blog hop, the random winner of
the challenge and the pick of the week. So what are you waiting for?

Here is the order for the Blog Hop, in case you get lost, you start and finish at the Challenge Blog:

My card this week using the paper piecing technique is from Phindy's Summer Cutie Collection called Giddyup
cardstock is GKD's Chocolate and Sand - Designer Paper is from the Paper Studio, retired SU ribbon, twine from GKD, buckle from SU's Hodgepodge Hardware and ticket from Whimsy Stamps
Copics used: C2...E00,02,04,13,17,47...B32,97

was going through my cards and thought for the one year anniversary I would share a card from just a few of the different Phindy collections
Summer Cuties Birdie

Animals In the Field
Christmas Winter Walk
Christmas/Winter Cuties Smooch

now that was just a review of a FEW of the different collections that Phindy has provided....and I didnt even get started on her newest collection - the Wee Babies - oh my they are toooooo precious!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY PHINDY! your talent is truly amazing and a blessing....thank you so much for this year...looking forward to many more!  You keep the images coming and we will do our best to bring them to life (-: and to my design team members - you are just the greatest! I feel like I personally know each one of you and to our newest members - welcome to the Phindy Phamily! (-:
Looking forward to our second year!!!

So everyone - off to the hop - this week our challenge was paper piecing...enjoy the hop and dont forget to grab the "hidden" word from each blog to complete the sentence  ...

I took the easy route and my piecing was the whole image LOL
