Oldies But Goodies May Blog Hop


Welcome to our May Blog Hop! The Designing D.I.V.A.S. are a groups of crafters that started on Splitcoast Stampers and has moved to include people on Facebook as well. We have this blog hop every month to encourage us to pull out some of those supplies that we may have forgotten about. Hopefully you arrived from Mary's blog. If you would like to start at the beginning you can go to Maria's blog and hop all the way through with us. I promise you will find some great inspiration!

My card uses an image from a company no longer in business. I just love this image though. I have been spending so much time outside with my shovel working in the yard that it reminds me of me, Crocs and all! Well, I am no where near that skinny, but I do have a shovel and some Crocs that I garden in most of the time. I found that hay paper in my stash a while back and decided I needed to use it soon and thought this country girl would be the perfect image to pair with it and I thought the denim paper would be good here too. Image was colored with Copics and I used ribbon from my stash. 

Your next stop on the hop is Mary Witter.
