Good Morning Everyone!

The Farmer's Market!

Along the way, we will show you some great projects made by the Embellish-Online Design Team using the best papers and embellishments of the season! Yep, just for you we have replaced the healthy stuff with some stampin' stuff (but hey, stampin’ and scrappin’ is GOOD for you too, right? At this Farmer's Market the venders are offering up some dynamite designer papers, spectacular stamps, beautiful bunches of flowers, rockin' ribbons and just about every embellishment you could ever want! Ooh! And don't forget some yummy Lemonade, Basic Grey has a new recipe and its wonderful!! Now that's what you call a Farmer's Market! Whoo Hoo!

A little gift package has been put together by the various vendors which will be awarded to one lucky person! Nope, its not tomatoes, corn or carrots! It's a special prize of American Crafts, May Arts Ribbon and Thickers!

In order to get in the drawing for that special gift package there is just one little twist:

Hey Diddle, Diddle...
You have to Solve a Riddle...

Hop like a Frog.....
To each and every blog....

Then you can Park It...
At the Farmer's Market....

Put your answer in your post....

The Riddle:

What is black, sings at night, the latest rage and ends up glued to a page??

Let's get going before the *Lemonade* is all gone!!!



Here is my page for the hop. I used the Early Bird Collection from Cosmo Cricket. I really can't get enough of it! I really hope you'll play along! There is a fabulous prize package for one lucky winner! Make sure you read the riddle and join us in the EI forums! Now hop on over to Christine's blog and continue in the fun!
