It's Here!! Our First Blog Hop Has Begun !



We are excited to announce our First Paper Traders Blog Hop.
We hope it will be a way for you to get to know a 
few of our group members better, see our art, 
and get a chance to win some nice prizes that are being offered by our members.
Maybe you'll even be inspired by what you see and want to join the group.

This blog hop officially opens at Midnight EST, April 19th.
Due to our international members being 5-6 hours ahead 
of us, some blogs will have already gone live with
their blog hop posts. If you find some members have
not posted their blog hop post, please check back with them.
Everyone should be coming on line by midnight.
Thanks for understanding.

The Blog Hop will be open the entire weekend of April 19-21, 2013. 
 Be sure to start here and follow the blog hop list of 
participating members below:







Each member will share a little bit about herself 
and offer either a handmade art piece or other quality prize
 that will be randomly awarded to blog readers 
who leave a warm, fuzzy comment.


The Mods are offering few prizes ourselves.
 Just comment below and provide a way for us to contact you 
and we will pick a randomly drawn name from those
 who leave a comment. 
 One entry per person, please.

We'd love to hear what you think about the new look
of our blog and our fabulous header designed by
our own Connie H.
(with thanks to Studio Manu who gave her permission
 to use her CU old books kit.)

Have fun on your journey and come back to visit us soon!

The Prize package from the PT Mods.

A Tag from Cathy C.

Gypsy Ribbon Doll from Beckie H.

Ephemera pack from Connie

And more to be added!!
