Because blog land is not thriving like it once did, we thought when you came to add your card or creation to our challenge, you could check out the entry in front of you and leave a comment for them.  Leave some love so to speak and who knows, they might come back and say hi too!! 

We will do our very best to comment on every entry but as some members do not have access to Splitcoast Stampers, Pinterest, Word Press, etc., we may not be able to leave a comment, however your entry will be viewed and will be counted.
