Here is the card I am showcasing for the DS4J Blog Hop.

I have used the gorgeous Apple Annie digi from DS4J's shop.  Apple Annie was designed by the talented Jen.  I have used H2O's to colour Annie and all the design papers are from Basic Grey.  You can find the tutorial for the folded flowers that were created with scalloped square punches, here.

... and This is the prize I am offering:

A $15 GIFT CERTIFICATE from Digi Stamps 4 Joy  to shop at your heart's content, and your choice of downloadable items!! Do yourself a favour and pop into the store and look at the most amazing digi stamps that can be used on your cards or scrapbooking pages.

Thanks for visiting my blog. Your next stop will be the talented Elenor in Sweden @ http://ellispysselochdittadatt.blogspot.com/ .

The Hop will end at 6 am (Central African Time) on Wednesday, 9 May, and the full list of winners will be announced on Monday, 14 May on the new Digistamps4Joy blog.  Our DT will also have their own winners posted on their blogs!
