Welcome to another fun challenge here at Seize the Birthday!  We are so happy that you are here! Are ready for our next topping?

Linda Snodgrass

Here is a bit about her!

I am the mother of two boys and have 9 grandchildren, 3 of which includes a set of one-year-old triplets and live in Washington State. I started my blog Lin's Craft Corner in 2011 and have so enjoyed this great hobby and share it with my BFF, Colleen of One Smile Lifts a Spirit.  I have met so many lovely ladies online and some in person.  It is so amazing to me that when meeting these ladies it's as though we have been friends all of our lives. Thank you Nancy, (one of the ladies I have been fortunate enough to meet) for asking me to be your Surprise Party Guest this month.
