SPRING INTO MARCH!


Welcome to Creations by AR Spring Blog Hop! 
In most parts of the country, it's hard to imagine that Spring is just a few days away, especially with the bitter cold weather some folks have been experiencing… but not us in warm California (as I'm typing this, it's a lovely 84ºF outside)!  I hope our Spring Blog Hop will give you a glimpse of the beautiful upcoming season!

I have two brand new sets this month.  The first one is the Carrot Patch, which has a removable insert that holds three carrot boxes perfectly! The white picket fence with grass surrounding it makes an adorable favor box or display.  Notice my customized sign post?  I thought it gave it some fun!

The second template for this month is the Standing Cross.  When designing this project, I thought about Jesus and how he gave His life for us on the cross.  As a child, I used to listen to a song called "I Believe in a Hill Called Mount Calvary," sung by the Heritage Singers (seen here on YouTube). Trying not to make the "hill" too large, my "hill" ended up looking like a stand instead of a hill.  Oh well...



If you'd like to receive one of these new templates, just "hop" on over to each of the blogs listed below to see what the other AR Girls have created using these sets and leave each of them a comment on what you think of their projects. Comments are also accepted on the AR Facebook Page.  A random comment will be chosen to receive their choice of either the Carrot Patch or the Standing Cross.

Comments are accepted until Friday, March 14 (12 noon Eastern) and the random winner will be announced on March 15 on the AR Facebook Page and on Creations by AR website.

Enjoy our hop and hopefully you'll find inspiration along the way!

I just complete the hop and it was so much fun and so inspiring!! Your projects and these files are amazing. My sister-in-law always hosts Easter and hopefully will have time to complete the basket for her.
