Joyful Stars June Blog Hop





Welcome to the first ever Joyful Stars Blog Hop!  We're excited to share our creativity with you using our favorite Close To My Heart products. If you have arrived from Stephanie B.'s blog you are right on track. If you are just happening by, that's ok follow the links and circle around until you get back to my blog. See below for the list of all our blog hoppers this month!

For my project I wanted to use one of my favorite product lines from Close to My Heart, My Creations. This is the My Creations™ 6" X 6" Canvas Display. I wanted to display a now and then photo of my parents, my brothers and myself. The Avonlea Complements Canvas Shapes are a perfect match with the theme. Other embellishments I used are the Durables Square Studs in antique gold and the Dark Chocolate Striped Grosgrain Ribbon.

Thanks for stopping by my blog. Now hop on over to Stephanie H.'s blog.
