I know you're confused....So, my blog is just one stop among many on our BLOG HOP for our Sweet Sue....and it all begins with Lydia who will explain it all on her blog which is also Stop Number ONE....so if you started on my blog, back up one to Lydia and see how this began....then come back here and see how our Progressive Card for our wonderful friend Sue made its way across the globe...errrr....Northern Hemisphere.
Here was my contribution to our Progressive Card...I added the dictionary page that included "Ireland"...since Sue is Irish....and was actually celebrating her mother's life in Ireland while we were making this card for her.
In celebration of Sue FINALLY opening her mail (LOVE YOU SUE!!!) I'm giving away BLOG CANDY!!! SQUEEEE!!! This is major for me...first time for a giveaway! So here's a little picture of just SOME of the goodies I'm giving away....stamp sets, Sizzix dies, ribbon, a carryall...and I'll throwing in some ink and paper and BLING (which isn't pictured)!! SQUEEE!!!

ReplyDeleteThis is the most original idea ever - and I am only on stop #2! Can't wait to see Fred all done! You girls rock!
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice tribute to a friend, and her mom. The Irish script is perfect.
ReplyDeleteThis is so much fun. I had to leave a comment before I traveled to the next site but now I am off t have fun......
ReplyDeleteI like the added text layer! I'm off to see what Mary Dawn has added to Fred :)
ReplyDeleteYou ladies are not only fun, but are amazing friends as well. You are fortunate to have each other...in good times and bad. I'm sure Sue will "feel your love" when she opens FRED.
ReplyDeleteOK, second attempt at leaving a comment about how great the progressive card idea is and how lucky Sue is to have you all as friends...
ReplyDeleteI just love the progressive card idea! Your addition of the Irish dictionary paper is a very personal touch.
ReplyDeleteLove your blog!!
ReplyDeleteTrying to leave a comment shouldn't be so frazzling. Love your blog Dana!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a marvellous idea. Sue will love it. I met Sue about 8 years ago when she so graciously drove me about Vancouver visiting stamp shops. My DH was in the hospital. We weathered torrential rains and power outages so no traffic lights. She is a great city driver. And a wonderful person to be around.
ReplyDeleteThank you for offering such great blog candy.
