happy monday ! what better way to start a monday than with some blog hoppin fun! the order of the hop and other info will be posted under my card.
this week our amazingly artistic and wonderfully sweet  carole  is our hostess and she chose the birdhouse from  stretch your imagination. i do own the cart but got a lil confused in our DT post , thought we needed a different cart i dont own... anyways i made this in advance and knew the ladies wouldnt mind if i didnt start over :)  .....so i used cindyloo cartridge for the birdhouse plus the swirl and flowers.  and for the birds ( i snipped off the boy birdies hat) and heart corners  i used sweethearts cartridge.i added colorbox fluid chalk,  and a heart pearl  my beautiful paper is memorybox.




ok..now for  the blog hop info  as i promised :)

Beautiful card, Shelly....very nice job with the challenge.

Shelly--I almost used the same birdhouse image because I recently got Cindy Loo. But I was confused with the assignment too and thought we had to do a birdcage. That's what we get for working so far ahead, huh!!! Another beautiful card from you. The colors are gorgeous.
