Flashback Friday's Blog Hop Celebration!!

Welcome to the Flashback Friday 20.0 blog hop celebration!!  If you are here from Yvonne's blog, you are in the right place, but if not and you would like to join in and have a chance at some wonderful prizes, CLICK HERE to start at the beginning and to get all the details.

I am really excited to get to join ~amy~ along with the other guest designers for Flashback Friday for this fun blog hop.  The theme for Flashback Friday 20.0 is Black and White.  You need to post a picture of your first Black and White card.  Well, I searched my archives on the blog and guess what.....I couldn't find a single card that is just black and white and I knew that I had created one at some point.  I dug into my card stash and sure enough there was one in there that I had partially created for a challenge a while ago and never posted because it was late.  I just added the the sticker sentiment to finish off the card.....

So, would you like a *peek* at the wonderful prizes that are up for grabs??

Click on the banner below to get started on the hop plus all the details on how to enter for the yummy goodies pictured above, but if you are already on your way through, hop on over to Karin's blog to see what she has to share with you.........and don't forget to leave your comment below......

Hugs,
Amy

Supplies-
     Cardstock: Bazzill
     Die cuts: Cricut
     Embossing: Cuttlebug
     Stickers: SRM Stickers
     Ribbon: The Ribbon Boutique

I am linking this up for CPS's 5th Anniversary Challenge with sketch 166 (funny, I think this is the original sketch I created this card for a year or so ago, but didn't make the deadline, so it got shelved and never blogged).

    Amy this card is lovely. Great CAS and embossing. Love the ribbon, too. This is the first FF hop I have joined and this is fun. I want to play along and link up, but when I looked back, I didn't have any B&W cards...CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT??? Can I make a new one and link it to the challenge??? Happy to have stopped in at your blog....it's been a while!
    Hope all is well with you and yours!
    :O)
