For Those Who are Left Behind Blog Challenge Hop!!!

So CropChocolate.com is hosting their 'Spring Fling' event in Utah this weekend and all us crafters who could not make it were feeling left out. Poor us ;).

Instead of sitting around sulking all weekend, we have decided to host a blog hop with challenges! With prizes donated by CropChocolate.com and some of their vendors!

To participate, hop along to each blog and complete the challenge that is posted on that blog. Each blog will have it's own challenge and rules so make sure you read them! The one rule that applies to all of the blogs, is that 50% of your product used must be purchased from CropChocolate.com.

Here is the list of blogs:













And here is my challenge!

I want to see you use a Pinwheel on your project! In order to win a prize FROM ME you need to leave me a link to your project (posted on your blog or online gallery or CropChocolate.com profile gallery) in the comments section by 9am (central time) July 6th! And you must also become a follower of my blog! I will draw a winner from those comments on July 6th, so please make sure you leave an email address to!

And remember, you must use at least 50% of products purchased from CropChocolate.com.

So go get crafty and remember to include a PINWHEEL!









*You may combine up to 3 challenges from this blog hop on one project if you would like, but remember you still need to post it on each of those blogs*

    Awesome! I can honestly admit I have never made a pinwheel for any project. I know, I know (head hung in shame) I am so behind in the times. Thanks for the challenge

    So I made my first pinwheel, scraplifting one of your cards. I love the pinwheel. Not so sure about the bottom of my card! Ha ha. It's on my cc profile at:
