  6. Was not sure if after going thru blog hop day 2 we are to put another link into the link but I did. Some of the hop participants did not have the day 2 post up so I continued on thru the ones that did.

  14. Elaine,
    I just made it through all of Day 1 and 2 and I have to commend you on an amazing lineup for this hop. On one hand, I am glad there is still tomorrow to browse creations, but sad that it will be the end. I will gladly, and with honor, join you for hops in the future if you ever need a "hop stop"! Thanks again!
    :O)
