Life's Little Blessings

WooHoo!  Not only is it the start of the weekend but it's also time for a blog hop full of blessings. Today our Cardz TV Stamps design team will be sharing cards with you that feature the newly released County Your Blessings stamp set.  I gotta tell you this is one of my favorites.

My card was created using an SVG file that I purchased from Kadoodle Bug Designs.  As soon as I saw this adorable cut file I had to have it for this challenge.  

(EDIT:  I should have mentioned that this is the Maternity Gift Set file.  When you purchase this file from Kadoodle Bug Designs it has a cut specifically for this card.  I just used that file and cut it to the size I wanted in order to create this adorable card. The set also includes a gift tag and a photo frame.)

Before you hop along to our next stop on the blessings blog hop I do have some blog candy that I would like to give away.  I have a set of alpha snaps with the numbers 1 through 9 that I would like to share with one lucky winner. 

I've used these on some of my cards and other projects in place of brads and they're very easy to use.  All you have to do to be eligible to win is leave a comment telling me about a blessing for which you are thankful. That's it. You don't have to be a follower - but if you like what you see I'd love to have you follow me.  

On Monday morning, I will announce the winner on my blog so be sure to come back to see if it's you.

As for me, I feel very blessed because I have a loving Savior who loved me enough to lay His life down for me, a wonderful family who supports me in all I do and I have my health.  And I have my blog hopping pals like you to stop by and encourage me in my crafting.  It couldn't get much better than that.

Now then, if you came to my blog via Sharon you're on the right path.  If not be sure to start from the beginning with Mary and hop your way from beginning to end.  Mary will also be giving away two sets of stamps to one lucky commenter and blog follower.  I hear that some of our other ladies will have candy as well so be sure you read their blogs and follow directions they might post so that you can be eligible.

Thanks for stopping by and after you leave a comment hop on over to the next stop of our blessings hop and pay Jeri a visit.  

As for the rest of our team and line up.....it goes like this:

Barb,
Such a great idea for a card! I love that you have made this darling card. The little bow is the perfect touch and I love the foot kicking out the belly too. I sure do remember that with my pregnancies!
Hugs,
Georgia
