Friendship


Good morning; so glad you have joined us for From the Heart Stamps April blog hop!   Today we are showcasing "Friendship" creations to inspire you.  As you hop along, please leave a comment on each entry.  One random commentor will be selected from each blog to win the image that the designer used.  Additionally, one commentor on the From the Heart Stamps blog will be selected to win a $5 gift voucher to the store.

If you have arrived from Guest Designer Jo's blog, you are in the right spot...if not, you may want to start at the From the Heart Stamps blog so you don't miss anything.

I have used the image "Loving Thoughts Bouquet"...I think it has a lovley shabby-chic look.  The image is colored with pencils and the flowers and hearts are accented with subtle glitter.  The patterned papers are distressed and I've embellished simply with mini brads.
