It's Hop and Shop Time!

Hi there! It's time to Hop and Shop with My Favorite Things! All of the new releases are available right NOW right HERE! If you didn't start the Hop at Kim's Blog, head back and begin from there! You don't want to miss a thing! Also, be sure to leave a comment at each stop, because one of us has some Blog Candy to give away! :)

My card features the set Love Birds. It was previously part of an MFT Kit, but now it's available on its own! It's a sweet set, perfect for those Valentine or spring projects! The paper is from the BasicGrey Sugar Rush 6x6 pad, also available at MFT!

I paper pieced the two love birds and colored the rest of the image with Copics. Then I applied some Stickles to the hearts. I made my own "button" from a chipboard heart covered with some of the paper. Some MFT Ribbon finishes the card.

Okay, now it's time to continue to the next stop! You'll be visiting the fantastic Jessie Rone, and I'm sure she has something fabulous to show you!

Thank you so much for hopping by! :)
