A Cupcake for Lori's Surprise Birthday Blog Hop!!!!

Hello!

Today is Lori McCroskey's birthday!

Lori is the owner of Clear Dollar Stamps and a dear, sweet  friend to all of her design team.

We all just love her to pieces so we wanted to celebrate her special day by having a surprise BLOG HOP!

SURPRISE LORI!!!!!

If you came here from Katie's cute blog, you are in the right place!

If you just happened onto my page, why not go back to Lori's blog where it all started. 

(some of the girls have access to her blog so they posted without her knowing it, so it would be a surprise)

We hope you have time to hit all 15 design team's blogs to check out all of the birthday eye candies but if you don't, we hope you will at least hop over and wish Lori a happy birthday!

The card I made for Lori was done with the very first stamp that I illustrated for her.

It is simply titled "Cupcake". The sentiment is from the "Cool Ride" set.

Remember, you can click on any picture to enlarge for better detail!

Your next stop on the hop is Christi's pretty blog.

Thanks so much for joining in on our little surprise party!

Hugs,

True :D
