Hey there lulu fans!!! Welcome to our lulu blog hop!!! {If you're not a lulu fan...you will be when you hop through all the fantastic cards today!} Did ya start at the begining with Emily? our Stamping Bella "leader in enabeling" & the sponsor of our hop today?? I can't wait, it's gonna be a huge distraction because I am prepping for Bellaland next weekend...but everyone needs a break right? LOL
I picked Harriet lulu, cause that plate of muffins looks yummy! Really, who would not love a fresh muffin, baked by a really nice friend! And if ya can't deliver that plate of muffins cross country, you can send this pretty card. Lulu is glazed, glittered and colored with prismacolor pencils. The paper that was my inspiration is the 'Lemonade' line, from Basic Grey. My faux bow is just a knot, but when ya use wired ribbon, it makes a nice looking bow, without the bulk. :) Tip of the day!! or did ya know that already? hehe Ok, now here is a fun little added bonus to this hop. Someone is the keeper of the $25.00 Bella voucher. If you wanna play along and get a chance at grabbing it, then leave a lil comment on the blogs, as you hop along...admiring all the fantastic work. The mystery voucher keeper will pick a name from her comments and cha-ching!!! A lil Bella shopping spree. {Nothing is better than free stuff.} So, you are ready to move on to the next stop... Jaymerz!!, and good luck to the sistahood!!!! Happy Saturday ya'll!
I love this image, I really need to buy her. Thanks for sharing this great card.
