Welcome to the Crop Chocolate New Year New Team Blog Hop!!!!
My name is Mary Shriver.
Welcome to my neck of the web!! I'm so excited to be a part of the infamous Crop Chocolate Design Team. You hopefully arrived here from Jasmine's blog. If you haven't been through all of the blogs here, make sure you see each one!! These ladies are amazingly talented!!
Amber asked us to list 5 interesting facts about ourselves.....so here it goes!
5 Things You Should Know...
- I have different colored eyes. Completely natural, and yes I wear contacts, but they are clear!
- I love to play games...board games, card games, video games...
- I have seen the fireworks from the top of the Empire State Building
- I love to bake
- I grew up in a small town in Oregon
Here are my entries for the CC Design Team tryouts
Amber - http://
The top one is one that reflects me. I love to create altered items for my home and as gifts. I didn't have the pictures for the bottom frames at the time, but they are on the to do list :)
I love to quill. And since Crop Chocolate hasn't sold any qulling materials yet, I made my own! This project was entered as my "think outside of the box". I had never made my own quilling paper, but it worked great with some EP scraps from my first project!
BLOG CANDY ALERT!!!!
I appreciate you coming by and visiting my blog! Hopefully you saw some cute ideas :) I am giving away some blog candy. It is a surprise, but believe me, well worth it :) To enter, Follow my blog, and leave a comment on this post. That simple!! I will use random.org to choose a winner at the conclusion of the blog hop.
