There will be several things going on during this hop...#1- you will get to see the brand new country images that are available in the SSD Store today- Japan, France, China, India, the Phillipines, and the Netherlands.. Each card will have a special birthday greeting for Lindsay in the language of the image. #2- you have a chance to win a fabulous prize by solving a mystery message for Lindsey. Each blog will feature two letters that you need to collect to solve the puzzle. #3- we will be having a trivia contest during the hop- there will be 10 questions and the person who answers the most questions correctly will win a prize! Those questions will be on the SSD Blog!
So, without further adieu, here is my card featuring the fabulous Japan Honey image.
I didn't like the way the birthday greeting looked on the outside of the card, so I put it on the inside here:
Happy birthday, Lindsay!! I hope you have a day as fabulous as you are!
Your next stop on your around-the-world trip is Shari's blog. Just in case you get lost, here is the entire blog hop list. Have fun!!!
