First, let me introduce Swirlydoos' February kit, 
Bonjour Mon Doux.
This kit is jam packed with Kaisercraft Sweet Nothings, FabScraps, K&Company, Ranger, May Arts.......and more!  Check out our home page for all of the details on the main kit as well as the add on kits!

Swirlydoos prize



Kaisercraft - These Days Collection


Petaloo - $50 Spring Collection Surprise Pack!!


You have until midnight, eastern time, on February 10th to complete the hop. Winners will be announced on the Swirlydoos Blog on February 11th.  In order to qualify to win here is what you need to do:

1: Visit all of the blogs and leave a comment on each. This way we know you were there. Become a follower if you're not already. Take your time. There are beautiful things to see along the way.

2: Before you leave each blog, look for the “special” words and write it down.
Once you have visited all the blogs and collected all the special words, they will create a sentence. 

3: Finally, go back to the Swirlydoos blog and leave a comment letting us know how much fun you had AND tell us the sentence that was created with all of the special words you collected.


The party starts over at Angelica's blog.  Have fun!
