Challenge # 79: "Carnival Hop"

Hey Mo fans! And, a great big welcome to our 79th challenge!! Thanks so much to all of you who joined us for our "Start of Something New" challenge last week. It is always such fun seeing all of your gorgeous little paper masterpieces!! Now...before we get busy talking about our new challenge....we have a winner to congratulate!! Well, actually, we have TWO winners to congratulate!! Here's why...

You may remember that two weeks ago, Heidy was our winner for the "How does your garden grow" challenge. Well, since she's one of the fabulously talented members of Mo's Dream Team, Heidy generously suggested that we choose another winner in her place. Thank you so much, Heidy...you are such a sweetheart!! So...

Our winner for  Challenge # 77
"How does your garden grow" is ...
# 11 Pascale
And...our winner for for last week's Challenge # 78
"Start of something new" is ....
# 43 Renata

Congratulations ladies!!
Please email Mo to collect your wonderful new digi prize. And enjoy!

Now...on to this week's challenge and Blog Hop...

This week's challenge theme is....

"The Carnival"
Zoe from Make it Crafty and Mo from Mo’s Digital Pencil, came together to share the delight and fun of The Carnival. To help celebrate this week's challenge at Mo's DP2 Challenge Blog, Zoe's and Mo's fabulously talented teams have joined forces for one MASSIVE blog hop to give you more than a little creative inspiration....

First, though, just a little information that you'll definitely want to keep in mind as you hop around from blog to blog...

Along the way you may notice some little balloons posted in the Design Teams' blogs! Well , here's a hint: Write down the letters as you go because at the very end we want you to guess what the saying is! Why? Two words: FREE STUFF!! That's right! There will be THREE grand prizes randomly drawn from the correct answers PLUS there will be hidden prizes along the way so make sure you leave some love as you hop along!

Now we know this is a super big hop, but we wanted to make sure you would get LOTS of inspiration! The hop will be open until the April 28th...so you'll have plenty of time to come back each day with a cuppa to soak it all up! (Just don’t lose the letters you have been collecting!)

A special thanks to our fabulous sponsors, Mo’s Digital Pencil, Make it Crafty, Stamping Bella and Quixotic Paperie for providing the fabulous prizes for this grand carnival hop!

Just a couple more tidbits of information before you start hopping....

Our very own fabulously talented Mo Manning has created one more special image for our fun "Carnival Blog Hop".

You can get her for your very own! That's right...for the duration of the Carnival Blog Hop, this little cutie patootie is available HERE for the unbelievably low price of $1.00!! All proceeds will be donated to the "Make a Wish" foundations in both the U.S. and the U.K.!! How cool is that? You get to help make a dream come true for some very deserving children...PLUS you get a new Mo Manning digi image to add to your collection!!

Here's the Blog Hop "order" for Mo's DP2 Challenge DT... Start at the top and you'll be guided along your way through a most magical experience!!


Don't forget to leave a comment on each post for a ‘possible’ chance at winning some fabulous hidden treasures!! Oh...and one more - very, very important thing...don't forget to enter this week's "Challenge" with your own paper creation. Just follow these simple rules:
