Paper Popsicles is having it's first ever blog hop!! So you'll be asked to hop from blog to blog featuring yummy eye candy with a summer theme...and of course what's eye candy without a little blog candy...make sure you leave a comment before you hop along to the next blog and you just might pick up a prize!!! Each blog will feature a secret word...these words needs to be collected and then put together to form a phrase. This phrase will then need to be emailed to paperpopsicles@gmail.com by Sunday night, July 12 at midnight Central time to be eligible for our grand prize.

So......lets get started!!!

If you are joining me from Jen's blog "It is what it is!" great...you are hopping right along...if you just stumbled upon my blog...you won't want to miss a thing, so hop on over ot thePaper Popsicles Blog to get you started.

Here's my project I'd like to share with you!!
I chose to keep my card and bag blank so I can use it for any fun summer occassion!!







The card was so much fun to make...yes that is real sand (shhhh...I took a little bit from my boys' sandbox)!! To make the card you need a 10.5" X 5.5" piece of cardstock. Then score at 1.25", 2.5", 4.25", 6", and 8.25" and fold accordian style. Decorate!! Now how easy is that!!
If you have any questions please feel free to ask...I will answer them in my comments!!
