Thank you… now on to our hop! 
If you have just hopped onto my blog, you can start here as this is a circular hop, but if you want to follow us across Canada then please start at the beginning and join Michelle Stewart . If you came from Janet McCormick then you are in the right place! 

Now on to my projects:

This hop is about your favorite products from the New Annual Inspirations and I was going to highlight the new Cricut cartridge Flower Market but I forgot my machine!! :( This is the problem with spending time at the lake all summer, you forget things so I will use what I did bring which is also one of my favorites.


The first project is a 4 X 5.5" card. There are twins expected to arrive any day now for a dear friends daughter so that is what has inspired this card.


I used the Whimsy Fundamentals Z3255, White Daisy card stock, Line it Up Cricut Bundle from the Flower Market collection Z3285, retired stamp sets-A1037 and D1561. I used a stampin' up stamp for the congratulations X2 and the stamp for the inside of my card, and Baby Boy Complements Z3273. I also used Sweet leaf ink for stamping.














The second card is also a 4 X 5.5" card and its a wedding card. I'm in need of some wedding cards as I've run out so this paper pack works well.

I used the Whimsy Fundamentals, Baby Boy Complements and Magical sequins. I used Crystal Blue cardstock and ink. I crinkled the love paper to give it a little dimension before sponging.











Your next stop on the Cross Canada Hop is Michelle Stewart
