All Creatures Great & Small Blog Hop & challenge 147 @ a spoon full of sugar.

Hello my lovelies & Welcome to the All Creatures Great & Small Blog Hop hosted by Misty.

If you arrived here from Michelle.D, then you are on the right track x

Operation Write Home recently put out a call for kid friendly cards our hero’s could send home to their children. That got Misty thinking …..

What is friendlier than a happy critter? Misty has been wanting to host a hop, and what better excuse? (Like we need one..Eh?) If you have been a follower of Misty, you know she really DOES love All Creatures Great & Small (& deadly).

She put out a call & has some very talented ladies for you to visit today!
I hope to get some ideas & inspiration from here & I am sure you will too!

I am entering my card into a spoon full of sugar challenge.
