Hop through the Garden with me!

Welcome, Spring Blog-Hoppers!

Thank you for spending day Four with me! When I was asked to participate with

this Amazing group of women, my first thought, after I asked to make sure their request

wasn't sent to me in error, was how this Blog-hop seemed to be the perfect opportunity to

create my very first Easter decorated sugar cookies. My second thought was to pair them

with the most beautiful thing about living in North Carolina during this time of year. And

that, my friends, is Spring! So let's explore the garden to see what we might find along

the way as we Hop to It! Well, that didn't take long... The first thing I see is a sweet

pink bunny waiting to be picked from the Forsythia bushes. Do you see her too?

Look! There's another bunny hiding under the Daffodil bouquet

that insists on Blooming in the middle of our garden path!

The garden Nymph over here has a beautiful

Easter egg she wants to share with us!

And Saint Francis has an offering of his

own for us... It's a precious little Lamb!

Over by the koi pond, I see another Bunny

hiding in the Bird bath by the tree...

Makes you just want to spread out a blanket and Soak

up some Sunbeams while nibbling on a treat. Doesn't it?

Better pick this Carrot before our garden bunnies discover it later!

Look Honey! There are chickens in your yard, and they're

not doing any Damage at all! Might this mean that you'll

change your mind and build me that Chicken coop now?

So... It appears we've found all of our Easter goodies now! I sure hope

you've enjoyed our Spring garden stroll as much as I have, and that

you'll be finding sweet treats in your own Garden very soon!

Now for our Spring Blog-Hop, day four give-away!

You know how much I enjoy baking and Decorating sugar cookies, right? Well, ever since

discovering CopperGifts.com last year, after I became obsessed with creating that super-

cute Snow Globe cookie I haven't bought another copper cookie cutter anywhere else! Not only

does CopperGifts.com handcraft each of the copper cookie cutters they offer from their

family-owned workshop right here in the United States, they're located in Kansas! So it

thrills this former Kansas-girl every time to support CopperGifts.com with my cookie cutter

purchases. When I contacted CopperGifts.com to ask if they might be interested in sponsoring

my day of our Spring Blog-hop, I received a nice note back from Beth, the owner, telling me

that while they get Many requests like mine, they rarely get them from actual customers!

Therefore, because of my continued patronage of their business, Beth explained that she would

be Delighted to sponsor my day! Beth then invited me to place an order for all of the copper

cutters I had in mind for my Easter cookie project, which I did. Now I expected Beth to

include the Cookie cutter decorating set I chose for my give-away, (it's been on my Wish-

list for a while!) but what I didn't expect was to receive my entire order Free! So a huge

THANK YOU to Beth and her Team at CopperGifts.com for sponsoring my give-away. And, if

they're reading this, I hope they will be pleased with the cookies I created with their help!

So what is this Cookie Cutter Decorating Set I've been dying to try? It's the, Fish Bowl!
