I'm not going to tell you where they are, so if you haven't found them you'll just have go back to the beginning and start hopping! *wink*

For my blog hop creation I used Smell The Flowers by Crissy Armstrong. For sentiment I used a stamp from Postage Stamps set which I cut out with a matching die.

The colouring is done with distress inks.

The flowers and leaves are a combination of Marianne's dies and Papermania punches and turned to my beloved OA papers again.

So now it's time for you to continue the hop by hopping on over to Iris's blog.
