Welcome to the KinderStampO It's Jessica's Secret Birthday Blog Hop... & KinderStampO Design Team Sketch Thursday

Friends are sometimes the best family!

I'm up for the sketch for this week on the KinderStampO Design Team. For my layout I used the new papers and chipboard pieces just in from Pebbles along with the flowers and doilies from www.KinderStampO.com.  You know me--I tend to "stretch the sketch" a bit even when I try hard to stick to it.  Love this new collection! Be sure to hop on over to www.KinderStampO.com to check out more great inspirations and gorgeous works of art by some of the ladies on the team.

As a bonus we are having a SURPRISE Birthday Blog Hop for Jess' ?? birthday today.  Just stop by all the blogs, leave a comment and check out all the gorgeous cards that the Design Team Members have made for Jess. From here you will start with the name directly under me, Cathy Derouche.  Here is the list of the blogs:
