Welcome to the Mother's Day Inspiration blog hop!! You may have joined us in our 12 Days of Christmas, Valentine's, and Easter hops. We've finally given ourselves a name, so thanks for hopping along with the new Inspiration Crew!
We're doing a 1 day blog hop full of fabulous Mother's Day inspiration. Everybody is showing off their own project with their favorite products... and there are some nice prizes along the way! Leave your comment by midnight EST of May 6th, and I'll announce my winner here on the blog on May 8!
You should have arrived here from DONNA's blog (she's our spectacular crafty fearless leader!)
NOW the moment I've been so eager to share with you all! I've made my mama an Exploding Scrapbook Box. This is the first one I've made and it is easily my favorite type of mini album. I'm hooked.
