Green with Envy SSD blog hop

Welcome to the Sassy Studio Green with Envy blog hop, so glad you are joining us this weekend. We are not having a new release this month, so we decided to do a hop showcasing everyone's favorite image, with a splash of green.

If you've arrived from Jovan's blog, you are in the right spot. If not start on the SSD blog so you don't miss any details.

I've used the very pretty Japan Honey for my card, colored with copics and paired with some Basic Grey papers. Not, 100% sure, she is my favorite image (that's like trying to pick a favorite of my kids, lol). But she is up there for sure. I've used a sketch from Cupcake Craft challenges #229.

Thanks for stopping by today. Make sure you comment on each card along the hop. Each blog will draw one random winner to get the image that they used. The winners will be announced on the SSD blog on Wednesday.

Now hop on over and check out what Tina created with her favorite image.

Here it the complete list incase there are any glitches along the way:

Trendy Twine treats

When I saw the challenge at Trendy Twine "Sweets for my Sweetie", this month, I had to play along. Pink and Red are two of my favorite colors, and I did need some teacher treats for Valentine's day. I just bought a whole spool of this pretty Cherry Cupcake twine, it is so awesome, pink and red woven together. So I went ahead and used it to wrap the middle band and tie the treat box closed.
