C’est Magnifique Blog Hop!!

Hello everyone and welcome to the C’est Magnifique Blog Hop!!

Spring is definitely in the air and what better way to celebrate its arrival than with the reveal of a kit filled with as much freshness and beauty as the season itself? We are offering so many opportunities to win some truly amazing prizes, and have stops along the way that include our participating manufacturers (Les Papiers de Pandore, Webster’s Pages, and Blue Fern Studios), our own sketch designer Michele Singh, and of course our incredible design team who have created plenty of inspiration to keep you moving through the hop!

I was really excited to work with this beautiful kit. Its perfect for spring and therefore perfect for this occasion. I can’t wait to show you some of my creations this month.

But before we get you on your way, let’s take a look at our May Kit and Add-Ons:

“Spring’s Portrait”

Here are 2 of my creations this month:
The first one is a 12×24 Inspirational Canvas I designed using this famous quote by Helen Keller

I used the Webster’s Pages papers for this canvas along with many flowers from the kit.

I will show you some close-ups of this project in a separate post in a few days as I don’t want to make this post lengthy.
