Time to Get Hopping!

Hello friends! I have the great pleasure of helping Sarah (one of the fab Mojo Monday DT) celebrate her birthday and blog anniversary. I sure hope you will join us by commenting on all the blogs and creating a card using her sketch. There are prizes to be won - Verve prizes ...woohoo... it doesn't get any better than that! The blog line-up is listed below as well as the sketch. You will need to link your card to Sarah's blog by April 2. So, come and join us...for more details you can head over to Sarah's blog.
So, here is the line-up:
Sarah - the birthday girl
Teresa
Wanda - you are here now :-)
Debbie
Tosha
Stephanie
Julee
Betty
Marisa
Andrea
Lynda
Charmaine
Keva
Amy


Here is my card for this sketch challenge...I can't seem to stop using these new My Mind's Eye papers, so I started with a DP from the Mabel pack and went from there. I punched a Garden Gate (one of Martha's new deep punches) border and used the sentiment as the focal point. The flower is layered and topped with adhesive pearls.
STAMPS: One Person (Verve)
PAPER: Stella & Rose Mabel DP (MME), Terracotta Tile (PTI), Neenah Classic Crest Solar White
INK: Chocolate Chip
ACCESSORIES: Terracotta satin ribbon (PTI), Garden Gate punch (MS), Frond punch (MS) Adhesive pearls.
Thanks for stopping and hopping!
