Welcome to our April Calendar Girls' Blog Hop. Its absolutely amazing when you do a google search the interesting facts you may find. Such a find is special and unique occasions throughout the year!!! These unique holidays are our inspiration. As Neil Sedaka sang in his song "Calendar Girls" - "April, you're the Easter bunny when you smile". Yes, I know that Easter came early this year, in March actually, but Neil Sedaka sings with April as the Easter Bunny ...... can't blame the lyrics!!

For my first day I chose National Peanut Butter and Jelly day ;0)
I used the Lite Fast Food Cartridge with a few alterations to create the sandwich and jars. all the papers are from my scrap file Trying to use up some of my scraps.
For my second day I chose Draw a picture of a bird day and this is my crude attempt (LOL) at drawing a picture of an Owl One of my 2 favorite birds.
I also was trying to create a shape card for National Pretzel Day (One of my all time favorite foods) Well the shape card fizzled and I am left with the topper also cut from the Fast Food Cartridge.
