Season's Givings Blog Hop


Dear readers,
I truly appreciate each one of you.... that you take the time to come & visit my blog
& comment on my projects... you cannot know how much it means to me!
And so, this blog hop is being held for you, as a way for me to say "thank you".

Each stop on the hop is hosting a giveaway.
So make sure you comment on each one to be eligible to win each prize.

Here are the two prize packs that I'm giving away...



Both prize packs include six stamp sets (My Favourite Things, Elle's Studio, Studio Calico, Teresa Collins, Fresh Squeezed stamps&/or Lil Inkers) and a 6x6 paper pad.

To be eligible to win one of these prize packs, you need to leave a comment here
on my blog by Sunday, Jan. 5, 2014, at 11:59pm CST.
I will draw two winners on Monday, the 6th.

And here's the card I wanted to share with you....

It's a chalkboard technique thank you card that I made
using the Forever Fall stamp set by Reverse Confetti.
  

I started with a panel of My Minds Eye patterned paper,
which I layered over some true black cardstock.
I cut another rectangle of black cardstock and stamped my sentiment and woodgrain heart in versamark and then heat embossed them with white embossing powder.
I rubbed some white ink over top and inked the edges in black with my blending tool,
for a chalkboard look.
To finish it off, I added two MME decorative brads.
  




Before you go, feel free to follow my blog & click on the link to do so on the sidebar.

Next on the hop is AJ Otto.

Here's the complete list of all of the blog hop participants:


Happy New Year &
thanks for looking!
