Welcome to the Stampin’ Pretty Pals’ Blog Hop!
This month, the theme is Sale-A-Bration, products you can earn as FREE GIFTS with a qualifying purchase. We hope that you will be inspired by the creations the Pals are sharing with you! Then, you will find the lineup at the end of my post to help you “hop” along from Pal to Pal.
2 MINUTE TECHNIQUE TIP: Consider the possibilities when you cut designer series paper. I purposely positioned and cut this pattern so that the birds would “frame” the sentiment.
