Blog Hop Hint – if you click on a link that takes you to a page saying something like, “Sorry this page cannot be found,” just click on the header at the top of the blog (usually a picture, or the blog’s name), and it will take you to that blog’s most recent post. That post *should* be our hop. If not, you can probably scroll down a short way to find the hop post.

  13. Love the card, especially since this stamp is one of my favorites. I don't know what Dimensional Magic is but the bird is gorgeous. Wish I was as skilled and creative with the Spellbinder Imperial Gold dies because your effects really make the card special.
