{Merry Monday SURPRISE!} Happy Birthday, LeAnne!

 

Welcome to the last stop in our surprise Birthday Blog Hop for LeAnne! You should have arrived from the uber-talented Kathy's blog and I sure hope you've enjoyed all the wonderful birthday goodies our Merry Makers have created especially for LeAnne! (If you'd like to go and leave her some birthday wishes, click HERE to visit her blog!) xoxoxo



Here is the complete list of hoppers if you'd like to start at the beginning:

Wendy Aungst
Lesley Croghan
Nina Forsyth 
Kristie Goulet
Debbie Henderson
Karren Johnson
Sue Joyce
Deanne Kay
Bonnie Klass
Katie Melhus
Margaret Moody
Kathy Schweinfurth
Lori Turner (that's ME!)

So, this week's regularly scheduled challenge has been bumped ahead (and poor LeAnne had NOOOO idea - we are such good sneaks!! ;) and we've made this week a BIRTHDAY THEME...so, if you'd like to play along with us, create a birthday card and add your creation to the hop on the main blog HERE or you can just hop along!


Leslie gave us a few ideas of what LeAnne's favorite things were and she mentioned blue and flowers ... well, I wanted to try this new-to-me set from SU! called Flower Patch along with the matching dies! Perfect time to use them....

I haven't known LeAnne personally for long, but I am so very honored to be "playing" along side her at Merry Monday and I have admired her "cyberly" for YEARS! LeAnne, you are such an inspiration to the crafting world...I am wishing you the biggest, happiest, most spoiled birthday yet!! Happy Blooming Birthday!! xoxoxo
