WELCOME TO THE JULY BLOG HOP!
Hi everyone! Thanks for playing along in this new blog hop! The Blog Hop with Sean & Regina is featuring cards and sentiments celebrating the Christmas/Winter season! Most of us are going through extreme heat right now and we are looking for some relief! When Sean thinks of relief, he thinks of a crisp winter’s day watching the snow falling and watching the neighborhood children outside playing and laughing.
We have some amazing creations for you to see and what's even better is that there are goodies you can win!
When I think of winter, I think of soft falling snow and peace, so when Sean approached me about participating in the blog hop (thanks Sean!!) I immediately thought of this image from Theresa's Life is Good set, it reminds me of when I was a little girl and we would to up to my grandparents cabin, I always loved how peaceful it was and the sound of the snow crunching as we walked along.
