~ ~ Blogaversary Desert Hop with Tara at CDD ~ ~


Today we are celebrating with Tara over at Craftin Desert Divas
 for her very first BLOGOVERSARY!!!


If you just happened to have stumbled upon my blog, please start at 
Craftin Desert Divas so you don't miss out on a thing. If you have arrived from Carri - DoubleClick - AKA Abusybee - then you are in the right spot. 

This is a "Desert" Diva Celebration!!

Here is the project I have created for this hop...
I used a lot of different lines of paper and card stock for this card today.  I wanted to achieve mimicking some of the wonderful colors of Sweet Tara's (Original) Blog Design along with mixing in the Desert Theme for her Blogaversary Celebration.
I will forever remember connecting and loving her PURPLE TONED BLOG!!!!


HAPPY BLOGAVERSARY TARA DARLING!
It has been a true joy and a pleasure connecting with you
