Blog Hop With The Character Cafe

We are back with The Character Cafe after a month "vacation." So to start off, we are having a BLOG HOP!! Hops are lots of fun and there's a great prize at the end. So this hop is to show off the new DT members as well as us returning DT members AND to show off the new digi releases this month.

I am using the lovely mums.
Edited to add card details: Bean has been sick so sorry I didn't add this last night...Cosmo Cricket DP (love this paper pack!), digistamp from The Character Cafe, colored with Bics, vase is from Walk in My Garden cut at 1.25", leaves are from Accent Essentials cut at 1" (once regular and once on blackout), chalk inks for shading, I believe the stamp is inkadinkado (acrylic set).


This card also meets the following challenges:
Blog Hop Details:
  • Comment on all DT blogs in order to qualify for the GRAND PRIZE
  • Use the FREEBIE in your creation for a chance at a Guest Designer spot in June
