Sparkle N Sprinkle's Spring Fling Blog Hop

Hi Everyone,
Welcome to the Sparkle N Sprinkle Spring Fling blog hop!  If you hopped here by way of Eleanor's blog then you are in the right place!  Otherwise, you might like starting from the beginning at the Sparkle N Sprinkle blog to become eligible for FIVE great prizes. There are 2 grand prizes and 3 “random” prizes that are attached to 3 different designers blogs.


This month’s hop is celebrating Spring, St. Patty’s Day and Easter. Each of our Sparkle Team Designers is  sharing their designs based on something from the 3 upcoming holidays.

A reminder that through the end of the month, the Sparkle Team presents Art Deco, People, Fantasy & Gail Burton images on special - 15% off!!! To view all our specials for the month, including some fabulous glitters, embossing powders and other SNS products, just click here to go to the specials section of the Sparkle N Sprinkle store.

Important things first!

Two lucky people will win a Grand Prize - a Stamp Set of the winner's choice mounted on cling cushion. As you visit each artist's blog, there is the possibility of winning one of THREE more prizes! It's a secret though. No one knows who "those three" are except for Brenda, the team coordinator...so be sure to leave a comment on EACH blog to be eligible.

I chose to focus on Easter cards so here is the 1st card I'd like to share with you today:

Benjamin Bunny has hopped over and joined the blog hop.


He stopped by to give you an Easter idea.

This new set really inspired me for the upcoming Easter season. Hope it inspires you, too.

Thank you so much for stopping by today. I hope you've enjoyed my cards as well as all the other designers cards on the hop. 

Don't forget, to become eligible to win a Grand Prize, please leave a comment on EACH blog. Winners of the mini prizes are selected when they leave a comment on the mystery designers blog also.

Good luck and have fun on the rest of the hop. Click here to hop on down the bunny trail to see what Gerlinde has created for you. Have fun!!!

  2. Barbara, your cards are so pretty, with the most beautiful use of ribbons. The two yellow cards are completely different with the contrast in the pastel and regular yellow. The egg layering is super cute, and the woven ribbons is also very pretty!
