Blog hop-The Sequel

Good morning everyone I hope you all have a fantastic weekend planned...did you all enjoy the hop yesterday didn't the team have some amazing makes to show you...have you chosen your Puppy Love favourites yet, I would love to know which ones they are...you should have arrived her from the amazing Vicky's blog but if you didn't and you want a chance of winning some candy pop on over to the fab Jane's blog to start at the very beginning all the details are on the Sugar Nellie Blog...don't forget to leave each of the sweeties on the hop a comment for a chance to win some goodies from Sugar Nellie
my little beauty to show you today is the gorgeous Fifi Goes Shopping, I coloured her with distress inks and paper pieced her fabulous little outfit and her sweet little puppies too with some Basicgrey Little Black Dress papers...I used her as a tag (backed with more of the same papers) for a Kraft paper gift bag I made, she works brilliantly like this doesn't she...

I stamped a sentiment on the bag and used a stunning metal frame which is another of my fabulous Secret Santa Tim Holtz gifts, love them all...I finished with a black velvet ribbon tie and bow and a lace bow,I love this fantastic stamp she is perfect for a girly of any age dont you think......your next stop on the hop is over to the fantastic Tiets who has another amazing creation to show just as wonderful as yesterdays, Im entering this for the Basicgrey challenge and Cutie Pie challenge...enjoy the rest of the hop and don't forget your comments for a chance to win, have a wonderful weekend
