Animal Love!

Welcome to our Saturday Blog Hop at Create With Stamping Friends. The Friendly Seagulls stamp set has been such a big hit during Sale-A-Bration. The seagulls are cute and funny and that’s what I picked for our Animal Love theme!

The french fries sentiment is a hoot! I also add some dry embossing to one of my layers using the Star Struck Embossing Folder which is another Sale-A-Bration product.
