If you have arrived from Janet Kay’s blog, you are right on track. If you are just happening by, you will want to start on the FSS Blog.

Collect a secret word on each blog along the way, leave us some love on our posts and follow the directions at the end of the hop for your chance to win this FABULOUS PRIZE!

One winner will receive ALL of this:

$25 GC to CropStop (provided by Fred She Said)
$25 GC to Fred She Said Store

Hop ends Friday, October 5, midnight EST.


My card today is made using the yellow and orange pre-colored Poppies images.
I used a sketch from this weeks's Anything Goes Sketch Challenge.
The Papers, pearls, stick pins and color ready seam binding are all from Close to my Heart.
The hand stitching was done with matching embroidery floss.

It's hard to tell on the photo, but most of the flowers had been printed a second time and fussy cut then layered with foam tape.

Your secret word on my blog is "to"
Your next stop on the hop is Robin’s blog.
