BUT lots of the stops along the way are giving away other fun stuff so you will want to go to every stop!!






OK let's get back to me ;)



So here's is my little creation for the blog hop:

Who doesn't love ruffles?!







I used the eCraft to whip up those hearts with fabric and freezer paper.  It was a snap!!
Here's a quick video to show you how easy!

The Ruffles were just as simple.  I just sewed a straight line down a strip of fabric then took the top thread and gathered it together until I liked the ruffliness.



After that, I sewed the hearts on the burlap then sewed a straight line to secure the ruffles.


To make it a magnet board, I placed a piece of sheet metal on top of a canvas board then wrapped the burlap around that and hot glued it down.




I grabbed some more fabric and hot glued a loop on the back so I could hang it.  Doesn't it look perfect on the wall, ready for some love notes...hee hee


 And guess what?!  I'm giving a Ruffled Heart Magnet Board away!!!  Yep, a lucky winner wins one of these!!!

So how can you win?! Leave a comment for each thing you do!!
