Sassy Studio Designs 6th Birthday Release Blog Hop

Greeting Blog Hoppers! Welcome to my stop, and the second to last on this amazing hop. I'm super excited to be a part of this wonderful birthday release as I've been a Sassy Fan for a few years now & lucky enough to be a Guest DT for this month. When I saw this superb image I had the perfect person in mind - my dear twin sister!

Unlike this amazing image (Oh those folds are to die for too!) my twin sister & I are not identical, but that didn't stop me from using it. Aren't they just gorgeous though?!...

Thanks for hopping by, please leave a comment (here and on all of the other blog hop sites) to be in the running to win all of the fabulous release images! Next stop on the hop is the talented Judy Rogers. If you are lost here is the hop list. All of the images will be available at the Sassy Studio Designs Shop.
