Seasonal Expressions 2 New Product Blog Hop

On: 05/16/2018

To visit each blog for some great ideas just click on the link at the end of the post on each blog to move to the next one! Here we go!

For today’s blog hop, I decided to show you how easy it is to use Picture My Life cards to make cards. There is a sheet of these Picture My Life cards included in each paper packet. I made a card from each set, except I didn’t have Central Park so I used the Picture My Life Birthday Cheer cards instead. I always seem to have some of these leftover when I am finished with the paper so this is a great way to make use out of them.
