Hi! Welcome to the Cards For Men Anniversary Blog Hop!
If you've come to me via Sarah, you are on the right track.
If you've just arrived and want to join the hop, please start at the very beginning at Cards For Men
I'm super excited to be asked by Donna to join her once again for this special occasion as a Guest Designer!
It's hard to believe that Cards for Men is one year old already!!!
To celebrate there is lots going on with tons of prizes available.
There
are two challenges, both with a Christmas theme.
The first challenge is...
Make a card, or a present, or both, the choice is yours.
The second challenge is..
collect a word from each blog to form a festive phrase.
(My word is 'WISH').
At the end of the blog hop you
should have 11 words, (Donna will have two words).
Work out the phrase and leave it in the comments
back at Cards for Men.
One random winner will be drawn for each category.
You can get all the
details and lots of inspiration over at the Cards For Men blog.
Each blog is giving away candy to one lucky winner!
My candy is sponsored by my beloved Peachy Keen!!
