Tickled Pink blog hop time!

Hello again... please scroll down for my Kraftin Kimmie Saturday challenge post... thanks!

It's release day for the Lil All Sorts over at Tickled Pink Stamps and we are celebrating with a super fun blog hop! As always there are stamp prizes hidden amongst the different blogs and all you have to do for a shot at winning is to leave a comment at each stop along the way.
I'm kicking things off right here and your next hop, skip and a jump will be over to the lovely miss Angela's. If you ever find yourself lost along the way, just refer back to the Tickled Pink blog for a complete list with links. :)

For my card I couldn't stop myself from using Fairy Kira once again, though I did a smidge of altering this time. All I did was wipe away her original eyebrows and the down-turned corner of her mouth before stamping and then drew in new, raised eyebrows and a smile to give her a less serious look. I just figured with all of the bright, sunny yellow that I had going on Kira could look a bit sunnier too, LOL!

Alrighty, here's a link to the Tickled Pink store just in case you feel like getting your shop on! Which one of the new stamps is calling your name? ;)

Later!
