Blog Hop Day for Clear Dollar Stamps

Yeah, it's blog hop day!  This month the theme is "Yellow".  We are celebrating spring at Clear Dollar Stamps even though the weather isn't.  We still have snow on the ground in Iowa and I know lots of other states are the same.  Yellow is the perfect theme I think.  If you have come from Laura's blog than you are on the right trail.  If not, you will want to start over at the Clearly iStamp blog so you don't miss any bright and happy projects today.  Last month we started something new with our hop and it worked great so we are doing it again this month.  You will need to leave me a comment here on my blog but make sure you leave your email address.  I get to choose a random winner from my blog comments.  If you win you will receive the set that I have used on my card.  I used the new digital set called Charlie Bee.  The set is really cute and I know you will love working with it.  I used only the beehive image and sentiment.  Aren't those bees so cute?!?
To continue the hop you will be going to Laurie's blog.  Make sure you leave me a comment and make sure you attach your email.  Have a fun day and happy hopping!

Mini Release from Doodle Pantry

Hope all is well with everyone!  For April Laurie decided to do a mini mid month release for Doodle Pantry.  How fun is that!  I choose to work with the new set called "Notebook Paper".  Then I added a sentiment from an older set called "Caterpillar Swing".  I need to be reminded of this some days.  Life can get so busy we need to just slow down and do something fun.  Just let your mind wonder when you think of the possibilities that can be used with the set "Notebook Paper".  So many creative uses!  This is also a huge plus - right now this set is free with a purchase from Doodle Pantry.  That makes it even more fun!
You can hop on over to Doodle Pantry and see all the new sets for this mini release and all the sets now available for the month of April.
