Ready to hop? Spring time!

Good morning. I am participating in the blog hop sponsored by ScrappininNJ.
You should have arrived here from Kim's blog HERE.
The hop starts today and ends on the 6th. There are tons of projects to get you in the mood for spring, yes I know some of you are thinking I do not need any help there, but they are there if you need them. Oh and did I mention BLOG CANDY galore? Yeppers yeppers! Yummy!

So we were asked to do a spring/Easter theme. As some of you know my family including myself has been sick for going on two weeks now and everything is a mess here so I whipped up some super simple cards for this hop. I used the wonderful Cutting Cafe File Rain Rain Go away.
I thought they were pretty appropriate for this season! Can you tell I am loving my new props for photo shoots? LOL!





Oh I did mention blog candy huh? Well for the winner of my blog candy you must leave a comment on my blog with your favorite Spring activity. Easy Peasy. If you wish to become a follower that would be great, but not required. I have an extra set of Martha Stewart Heart and Flower clear stamps to give away (plus a few goodies from my stash).
Now your next stop on the super fun blog hop is Beatriz! Make sure to leave her some comment love too!

    I love your cards and your props! What a neat idea! My favorite springtime activity is sitting outside on the swing reading a book and enjoying the beautiful weather! Something I don't always have time to do.

    I hope you and your family get better soon. My daughter and I are on week three with colds, thankfully the rest of my family never got it.
    Your cards are really cute, I like the one with the scraps of paper and ribbon. I'm also a new follower.

    Such cut cards. Spring to me is just the perfect time to get back outside and watch everything start to turn back to green plus open up the doors and windows and air out the house from a long winter. I also read your post about amking your own patterned paper, it looks fantastic.
