Special ATC Blog Hop with the Bombshell DT


Hello! I bet you're thinking that July has passed you by and it must be the last Wednesday of the month since the Bombshell's are blog hopping. Nope! Do not adjust your dials, this is a special edition hop featuring an ATC swap between the Bombshell DT and Guest Designers.

Stephanie (Pinkstar) coordinated this swap for us. She asked us to select the Bombshell who best represents who we are and create an ATC to swap with the rest of the group. Steph is also putting together a book of the ATCs for our fearless leader and Ultra Cool Bombshell, Shannon. No peeking, Shannon ;D

I don't have much experience with ATCs. This is only my second swap and the one thing I learned from the first swap was...ATCs are small! There is not much canvas for creating, so I had to be very selective with the details. I decided to go with Girl's Ruin. She's pretty fabulous and the cherry on top is that big shoe! Every girl's dream ;D I decided to deck out my Bombshell with a lovely tiara. Now, I am not implying that I am the Queen of anything, but if I could be the Queen of Bling, that would make me mighty happy.

When Steph got us all sorted out and sent our bundles to us I was like a kid on Christmas morn. I snatched my parcel from the mailbox and ran inside to rip into it. It's a wonder I didn't tear it apart right there in the driveway...LOL!! But decorum and good manners are my best accessories and I waited for an appropriate time to...WAIT RIGHT THERE! I ain't fooling nobody. AND you know I'm serious because of the double negative I just dropped. Once I hit that front door, I slashed at that envelope like a cat in the bathtub. Inside I found a stack of the coolest and most insanely awesome ATCs that you ever did see. What's that? You want to see them? Sure, there's only one catch, you just have to visit everyone's blog. That's why they call it a "hop" ;D Enjoy! I know I did!
