IIG 4th Birthday Blog Hop!

Welcome to the If It's Groovy Birthday Blog Hop! As we celebrate the 4th birthday of IIG we welcome you to sit back, take some time and visit the blog hostesses as each has prepared calendar pages that we hope will inspire you to create your own :)We also have some friends who are playing along with us from the True XOXO blog and they may have calendar pages and/or holidays to share with you. I have 2 months that I worked on for this hop! April for Easter, the triplets birthday and just lots of sunshine and warmer weather that we can get back outside and play with our cousins!
Fall is most definitely my favorite time of year! Pumpkin patches, hoodies, changing leaves, and a fun family visit to Connor Prairie, an interactive history experience!
Here are each of the bloggers who have participated so if you get lost along the way you can always come back here and start over. We know there are blog issues sometimes so if anything wonky happens fear not and just slide back by here and start back over. Please do visit each of our friends as each has created very creative and oh so beautiful projects.

  12. These are darling layouts Heather. Something about the April photo just grabs my attention and I don't know if it's the clothing colors, or the way you offset the paper strips. I love it! I love that you chose wood paper for your Nov background and used earth tones throughout.
