Sandra's Butterfly Birthday Blog Hop

Welcome to Sandra's Butterfly Birthday Blog Hop and to Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons.  This weekend is Sandra's birthday, and we're helping her celebrate with this awesome hop!

If you came here from Marianne's blog, you're in the right place.  If you'd like to start from the beginning, head on over to Sandra's blog: 365 Days of Cricut.  You definitely want to check out all of the awesome projects along this hop and leave comments for each and every one.  If you do, you'll be eligible to win some fantastic blog candy from Sandra, plus you'll probably see more blog candy along the way.

We're all making Butterfly Birthday-themed projects, so here's what I came up with:


This little card is actually a giftcard holder.  I got the base of the card from the Lettering Delights Sweet Nothings Gift Card Holders SVG set.  The butterfly came from the Lettering Delights Butterfly and Blossoms SVG set, and I got the sentiment from Pink By Design's Birthday Birthday stamp set


Here's what the card looks like inside...a perfect fit for any giftcard.  I hope you like my project! :o)

And, what would a blog hop be with out some fun blog candy?  One lucky follower will win a Pink By Design Cupcake Background Stamp.  Just be a follower of my blog and leave a comment with your e-mail address included.  I'll choose a random winner later this week.  Good luck!!! :o)



Your next stop is Stacey.


Here's the lineup, just in case you get a little lost. :o)
