Day 1 of the "It's All About The Green" Blog Hop



Welcome all to the 1st day of the "It's All About The Green" Blog Hop. Thank you for hopping over. This is a 2 day blog hop with a different project each day. So be sure to come back again to see the next set of projects. There are so many very talented and extremely talented ladies in this hop, it is sure to get your creative juices flowing.

If you found my blog by accident, welcome and you are starting in the right spot. This is the beginning of this hop and there is a list with links to all the participants at the end of this post. So if you get lost, please be sure to hop back here and pick up where you left off at. This hop is not your normal St Patrick Day's hop. This is a hop about anything that is Green. So you will see some St. Patty Day projects, but you will also see some totally different projects for this hop as well. So sit back and begin your "Green" creative journey.

I am also giving away blog candy (a Cricut Cartridge brand new in packageing) with this hop. If you are an international viewer, I will put $5 US Dallors towards the shipping of the cartridge to you if you win. The rest of the shipping will have to come from you. You must be a follower and you need to comment on one or both of the post for this hop. If you comment on both days you will double your chances of winning. The Cartridge will be posted at the bottom of this post after the list of participants.

As you will see, each of my 2 layouts have nothing to do with St. Patricks Day at all. I put a little bit of a spin on what I created. This 2 page layout, I used an item that I had in my "Give to my daughter" box.  Tomorrows Layout is really a very special 2 page layout that I think will be a big hit.

Anywhooo, here is my first project being Eco "Green" and Color "Green" at the same time. LOL

TOAD-ALLY AWESOME


This layout I used only scraps that I had, except for the 2 background papers. Everything else was out of my scrap pile or my "Give to my daughter" box.
