It's Blog Hop Again over at BBTB2! Tie One On........An APRON that is....Hee Hee!!!!!! And let's get to Hoppin!

Well it's Monday and BBTB2 time again. It's also the last Monday of the Month so that means Blog Hop Time also! The challenge this week is picked by my lovely Design Team Sister Penny and she chose the Cute Little Adorable Apron which is from the From my Kitchen cartridge. I LOVE this cartridge, one of my favs and I LOVE this little Apron. I have a thing for aprons so I was really excited about doing this challenge. ( I make handmade up-cycled denim overall aprons that I sell on Etsy, when you get a chance check them out!) And if you don't have this cartridge you can use any apron  to play along. There is also a cute apron on the new Country Life Cartridge or there are some adorable Apron Stamps or digital images out there you are encouraged to use. 
I have a layout done on my Gypsy but since my slave driver husband has been forcing me to work on the house (at least I'm getting my craft space done) I had to do a quick card (well okay I did two cards, lol) but I think they turned out great. I just bought the little ball fringe ribbon awhile ago and just found this paper yesterday when I was going through all my old bins of scrap stuff that have been in storage for the last 3 years (yes it was like Christmas) and the colors were just perfect so of course the fringe had to go on the aprons. Too Too Cute, don't you think! I had originally did the green card base but thought it had too much green in it so had to do a pink card base so that's how I came to make two. 
Okay now back to the blog hop, if you hopped here from my Amazing and Talented Design Team Sister Julia's blog your in the right place. If you ever get lost while your hopping around just go back to BBTB2 and the list will be on there. I have some blog candy and all you have to do is make sure your a follower of my blog and leave a comment. I am hoping to hit 200 follower's this hop so if I do I will be adding a few more goodies so make sure you pass on the Blog Hop Link. I am going to include Canada this month, along with my fellow US residents, since I've noticed that I have quite a few Canadian follower's (Woo Hoo to my Canadian follower's) and I love all of you and I just have to include you also. So make sure you are a follower and don't forget to leave a comment! (I will check up on you, LOL) Your next stop will be the Lovely and Talented Design Team Sister Julie's blog. I'm sure she'll have another amazing creative apron for you to ooh and ahh at, along with all the other amazing ladies, they are all so talented! Have fun hopping and don't forget to comment and follow.
 
I have a few chipboard mini's and a small paper pack and then I also included two handmade beaded bookmarks that I myself have made. The beads are purple glass for all you girls that love the purple and the picture just doesn't do them justice, they really are quite pretty. Now remember if I hit 200 follower's I will add a few more goodies to the candy bowl.
Well hope you all had a blast on the blog hop if you get lost go to the BBTB2 blog here. Have a great week and hope to see your challenge aprons.
Take care and Froggie ((Hugs)) Theresa!

  9. Theresa,
    You did a great job on these aprons. I love the roses on the pockets and the trim on the bottoms. I wouldn't have thought of either of those ideas. These would make great invitations to a pot luck or brunch or anything!!! Beautiful work!!!!!

    Thanks for sharing.

  11. Wow, Theresa, I can't believe that new crafting area isn't done yet. You should be slaving away--and blaming it on your husband!!! LOL Fantastic cards. I love to use ball fringe on my designs. It just adds a touch of whimsy, I think. I have that same pink and green paper in my stash. I used it for a baby girl album I did. Now get back to work on that craft space.

  44. love these. I just started playing with the cartridge. I am making invites for my daughters wedding shower. Can I ask how you made your card base? I have tried both blackout and shadow and both still cut out the neck circle. Thank you for your help!
