Behind these Hazel Eyes Theme!
Welcome to our Saturday Blog Hop at Create With Stamping Friends. Hazel is our theme this week and it just so happens to be the color of my eyes. My eye color changes too with whatever I’m wearing. Sometimes they are greener or sometimes with more brown showing.
Here’s my card featuring hazel (or Old Olive):
I used the Spotlight On Nature Bundle for my card. When I created this card, this bundle was available through the Online Store and has since sold out. I’m sad because I love butterflies!
