50 States Blog Hop!!

Welcome to the 50 States Blog Hop!!

Welcome to the 50 States Blog Hop! Most of us would love to travel but are having staycations this year. What better way to travel but through a blog hop. This hop was inspired by our host Shawnee's journey across the United States as she traveled with her family to their new home. The United States is truly beautiful with many wonderful places to visit and see.

If you've hopped along from Wisconsin, then you are in the right place!! If you just happened to visit my blog from somewhere else, please be sure to start with the first state in the union, Delaware, because you won't want to miss out on any of the fun (or any of the blog candy!!)...

Now on to my state and my project....  
CALIFORNIA

I decided to make a Pop-up card for my project to show off some of the places you don't want ot miss out on when visiting the great state of California.  Hope you like it:)

Plate Front

Inside Pop Up

Inside Angle

On the front of my Pop up card, I'm showcasing our awesome License Plates for the great state of California. On the inside...Grapes for Wine Country, Shamu for Sea World, of course HOLLYWOOD, that funny little Mickey Mouse over at a place we like to call Disneyland, the Ferris Wheel at Santa Monica Pier and lots of Sunshine, Palm Trees and California Dreamin'

Now...here is a little blog candy that I'm going to
send one lucky winner.  And just think, it will be coming
right from this Beautiful State of California:)
I am going to give away
this cute little
Pink CGull Tool Set
  *All you have to do is leave a comment on this post
with a way for me to contact you if you win...
*Follow my Blog
and
*I would love it if you would grab my Blinkie
and post it to your blog. Not necessary to win
but I would really like it a lot:)

Now you can hop to the NEXT STATE IN THE UNION!! Minnesota:) Remember to leave a comment on each state to be eligible for the GRAND PRIZE!!

  12. What a fabulous card Julie! I love everything about it! And I must admit that I love California too. I am a Utah girl myself but the couple of times I have been to Cali have been just wonderful. I love Disneyland and would go every day if I could :) And the beaches are beautiful. Have never been to Hollywood but it would be fun. Thanks for sharing this amazing project!
