I was so honored to be a guest Hopper with scrappy moms stamps :)

For my blog hop project, I decided to showcase the Amusing Animals Stamp set by Scrappy Moms, their 1st ever stamp set, and one of my favorites. Punny Animal sayings are always great to add to your project, and the quality of the stamps is OH My WoW.  Since the moment I got these stamps I was hooked :)

I used this weeks Mojo Monday Card Sketch and Came up with This!!
