Divas by Design Blog Hop & Challenge

Hello friends!  The Divas have lots going on today so get comfy and grab yourself a cup of coffee or tea.  We are having our 1st Anniversary Blog Hop and we also start a new challenge today.  You can play along in the hop, the challenge, or both.  Our challenge winner will be randomly picked, as always.  There will also be 7 prizes for hop winners.  In order to be eligible for a hop prize, you must leave a comment on all the blogs and the challenge blog. 

You should have arrived here from Laura's blog.  If you didn't, please start over on the Divas By Design Challenge Blog so you don't miss anything.


I used this beautiful "Easter Pinkette Daisy August" image from Tickled Pink Stamps, one of our fabulous blog hop sponsors.  She's colored with copics and colored pencils and I applied some glitter paint to the ruffle on her skirt.  I added some WOC flowers, punched butterflies, ribbon, and pearls.

Your next stop on the hop is Laney.  But before you go be sure to leave a comment so that you're eligible for a hop prize. 

Our challenge this week is "anything goes" and the challenge prize has been donated by Mulberry Crafts.  You can see all of our fabulous blog hop sponsors over on the Divas By Design Challenge Blog.  

Thank you for stopping by and happy hopping!

Hugs, Anita

Paper:  My Mind's Eye Lost & Found; Bazzill
