Good Morning Everyone! Hope you have a wonderful weekend! First I would like to thank Shannan Teubner for putting together this blog hop. Girl, you ROCK!!!
Welcome to the first Ketto Blog Hop sponsored by Stamping Bella! If you've just happened upon my blog, you can CLICK HERE to start from the beginning at Bloggabella.
One of my favorite Kettos is Kenya. I used SU's tempting turquoise & apricot appeal paper, Basic Grey's Marrakech DP, and colored Kenya with pencils and gamsol. Of course I had to use some bling...added stickles to her headband and wand. The sentiment is from Verve. Enjoy the blog hop!
Thanks so much for stopping by! Now it's time to hop on over to the lovely and talented Jamie!. Have a great day!
How about a prize? In addition to the fabulous eye candy, we have decided to hide a prize somewhere along the hop! One pre-selected blogger will draw a random winner from the comments on her post, and the winner will receive a $40 Gift Voucher to Stamping Bella!!! The fun part is...we're not telling you who it is! 
So as you hop, make sure you leave comments on every post so you have a chance to win!! We will announce the winner on Monday. MWAH!
Wow... just beautiful. I love Kenya as well, she just seems like a girl with a great personality... okay is it weird that I have attributed a personality to a stamp? lol.
