Welcome everyone to the 2013 National Scrapbooking Day American Crafts blog hop! You can be sure to enjoy all the challenges and creations along the way.
For my challenge create a project using a double ombre. I chose the papers by Dear Lizzy Lucky Charm that were already ombre for me! I punched my butterflies and layered them in order of color. I also pulled out the DIY Thickers! Those things are pretty cool!
What would a blog hop be without a giveaway. Stop by every ones blog and go straight back to American Crafts to be entered to win the HUGE prize pack there! I will be giving away a prize pack of Amy Tangerines Yes Please stamps and stitching kit.
Next up on the hop is Monika!
