2nd Year Birthday Challenge and Blog Hop!!

It's a special month here at By The Cute and Girly because it's our 2nd Birthday!! and to celebrate we are having a special challenge and blog hop!

There's lots of prizes to be won and loads of inspiration along the way :)

For a chance at winning those prizes, all you have to do is enter the challenge as you normally would and then do the blog hop, collecting a letter from each dt members blog (they have made it easy for you to find them), then when you get to the end of the hop, rearrange the letters to make our special word and email me (Lora) at lorascards@aol.com with the word you have made from all the letters and I will add your name to the draw.

Speaking of the challenge, it's a nice easy one this month for our Birthday Celebrations-
 "Anything Goes"
That's right, you can make anything your heart desires, and remember you can enter with any craft.

For this challenge only as the theme is anything goes, we are limiting the entries to only 1 entry per person.
