Swirlydoos' March Kit Reveal Blog Hop Block Party!

Welcome to Swirlydoos' March Kit Reveal Blog Hop Block Party!!
If you came here from Swirlydoos's blog, then you are on the right track. If not, go back to Swirlydoos' blog and start from there. We have some amazing projects for you to see today and as a bonus we have 2 manufacturer blogs that are joining in the fun and a 3rd manufacturer offering a prize!! There are 4 prize packs up for grabs so make sure to follow along and have fun!!
Here are two of my projects using Swirlydoos' March Kit, "French Quarter".
This first layout is created using this month's Swirly Hues!
And this second layout is created using this month's sketch.
I will be sharing these layouts in greater details in separate posts soon.
You have until midnight, eastern time, on March 15th to complete the hop. Winners will be announced on the Swirlydoos Blog on March 16th. In order to qualify to win here is what you need to do:
1: Visit all of the blogs and leave a comment on each. This way we know you were there. Become a follower if you're not already. Take your time. There are beautiful things to see along the way.
2: Before you leave each blog, look for the “special” words and write it down.
Once you have visited all the blogs and collected all the special words, they will create a sentence.
3: Finally, go back to the Swirlydoos blog and leave a comment letting us know how much fun you had AND tell us the sentence that was created with all of the special words you collected.

My special word is : There
The party continues over at Karola's blog. Have fun!
