Fiskateers Spring Blog Hop

Welcome to the Fiskateers Spring Blog Hop. 
You should have come from
Betsy 2572 www.aimhappy.blogspot.com

If you are hopping into the middle of our blog hop and you are a Fiskateer, you can start here www.fiskateers.com.
 If you are thinking a “Fiskawhat?”, you should know that Fiskateers (www.fiskateers.com) is an online community of craftiness (paper crafts, sewing, gardening, etc.) all based around our love and appreciation of Fiskars (think orange-handled scissors to start). There is a blog, gallery, and message board led by four lovely Lead Fiskateers who along with the other Fiskateers are fabulous at getting creativity flowing via chats, challenges, on-line crops, and interviews with other crafty celebrities. If you would like to join in the inspiration of Fiskateers, visit http://www.fiskateers.com/join. Then, join in the fun at the beginning, www.kellystarsallthingscrafty.blogspot.com for a complete list of blog hop stops.

 We’ll be hopping all weekend , March 24th and 25th to welcome spring!
The blog hop officially ends on Sunday March 25th at 11pm CST.
Some Fiskateers are offering sur-prizes…check their directions carefully to participate.

I am so excited to be a part of this blog hop!!! Thank you for hopped on by!!

I made this layout using 5, count them, 5 Fiskers punches. I'm kinda addicted to punches right now. I used 3 boarder punches, my new tag punch and a small hole punch in the tags. 


Heres one of the tags. I also used one of the boarder punches here too.
This shows the Apron Lace Boarder, Diamond Boarder Punch, and the Tag punch.

Here's the Notebook Boarder Punch



 I really had fun with this layout. Thank you so much for hoppng over to my blog!!

Your next stop is

    What a beautiful LO! I love the way you layered everything and your paper choices to go with the pictures. I don't know if I should be embarrassed or happy to say I own every punch you used on this LO...out of all of the punches Fiskars makes, what are the chances?

    BTW, I am your newest follower, because I can tell we must have something in common!

    Cute LO...kinda makes me want to go back to the 12x12 formate but...I LOVE 8.5 by 11 LOs! They are so easy to crank out if I feel I'm in a rut.
