From The Heart Stamps April Blog Hop!

Welcome to our From the Heart Stamps April blog hop. This month our theme is “I’m No Spring Chicken”!   How fun, Right?

As you hop along, please leave a comment on each blog. One random commenter will be selected on each blog to win an image of choice from the FTHS store.

If you have arrived from Kathy Curry’s website, you are in the right place, if not why don’t you start on the From the Heart Stamps blog, so you don’t miss anything.

For my project, I used, “Chocolate Birdbrain” which I colored up in Copic Markers in V25, V22, and V20 for the body, E29, E25 & E23 for the chocolate, YG67, YG17 and YG03 for the grass and E23, E 31 and E33 for the dirt.

My background is made using the Inky Antic’s Cloud Stencil and some good old fashioned chalk.  My paper and dies are My Favorite Things.

Now head over to Kelly Schelske’s and see what she has created.

Hope you enjoy hopping with us today.  Our hop will end on Sunday April 9th at 6 am, and the winners will be posted on Wednesday April 13th.

Happy Hopping!
