Welcome to our From the Heart Stamps blog hop!

Our theme this month is Smiles and Giggles, so create something that makes you smile!
As you hop along, please leave a comment on each entry. One random commenter will be selected on each blog to win an image of choice from the FTHS store. And additionally, one commenter on the From the Heart Stamps blog will be selected to win a $15 gift voucher to the store!

If you have arrived from Imke's Crafting Creations, you are in the right place.  If not, why don’t you start on the From the Heart Stamps blog, so you don’t miss anything.

For my card, I chose an image from the Birdbrains line because they always make me giggle.  This one is a Father's Day card because I have to create them en masse -- I have three men to honor on this day!  The inside sentiment reads:  Hope you REEL in a wonderful day!  Happy Father's Day!

Challenges entered include: 
1)  Sweet Sunday Sketch #271
2)  Pile it On #71:  Focus on Coloring:  I really like how the fish turned out!
3)  Sweet Stampin':  Father's Day

Now head over to Jo Edward's and admire her creation!
 
Thanks for hopping with us today. The hop will end on  Monday May, 4th at 6 am EST. Winners will be posted on the From the Heart Stamps Blog on Wednesday, May 6th.
