CWC Jen's Birthday Blog Hop


Welcome to the CookingWithCricut.com and PaperCraftingWorld.com Designers June Blog Hop. I hope you joined the Blog Hop yesterday and have had a chance to see all of the great projects from the different designers. If you have come from Jamie's blog then you are moving along on the right direction. If you would like to start from the beginning, please head over to CookingWithCricut.com.

This month our hop theme is all about Birthdays and one special one in mind. Our wonderful DT Coordinator Jen Hudson’s birthday just happened to fall on Saturday so we decided to make it a celebration weekend with birthday inspired projects with a “Jen” theme in mind. Our "GO TO" gal is a die-hard Florida Gator Fan. Our goal was to use elements on our projects that reflected Our GATOR FOR LIFE Gal’s FANCY;  Florida, The Florida Gators and anything that would make you think of the Sunshine State. Jen is the last stop on our blog line up so be sure to hop through and leave her some extra special love at the end!

For the Blog Hop today I created a birthday card and candy sundae.
