One More Day and Saskia's Cute Card

Hello my friends and all our new friends!  The Operation Write Home Blog Hop was awesome!  I do apologize if you followed my blog and it kicked you out, or if you couldn't even follow at all, Blogger went wonky on Saturday, it didn't make me very happy.  Since there was so much wonkyness I'm going to do my giveaway drawing tomm., so then if people didn't make it all the way through the hop or weren't able to leave comments etc., they have a little more time.

Now today, I have a wonderful card made by our lovely design team member Saskia.  She used the Off to See the Wizard digital Stamp from my SHOP and for the background she used the page from an old children's picture book.  Read more about her card in her POST.

Isn't this the cutest!

Operation Write Home Memorial DayWeekend Blog Hop

I apologize if you either followed my blog and it kicked you out (a couple people are missing!) or if the follow box just isn't there. Grrrr to Blogger :(  Okay, now I'm also missing comments!
Hello and welcome.  It's the Operation Write Home Memorial Day Weekend Blog Hop!
A quick note, Blogger had been acting wonky (at least for me) and my followers keep disappearing, so if you want to be my bloggy friend you might have to come back to hit that follow button.

For the blog hop we were supposed to make a missing you card and to snazz it up it was optional to make it red, white and blue.  Below are some shots of my card, it's pretty simple, I'm not the snazziest card maker.  I used my own image (digital stamp) and colored it with Prismacolor colored pencils (next week I'll have the digi stamp in my shop).  I made the text using a font from Adobe Illustrator and printed it on brown kraft cardstock.

 

I'm also having a giveaway, some blog candy as the cool kids call it.  Read the guidelines in the post before this one.

First: Choice of five digital stamps from my STORE!

Second

This collection of nifty stuff;  10 kraft permanent adhesive sticker sheets, pad of really cute tags, package of epoxy circles, package of chipboard, package of brown kraft mini gift tags.

Third: This sketckbook.  I have one of these myself and this is the paper I used for the image on my card.

Have fun on the rest of the hop.  I hope I make some new lovely bloggy friends.  Scroll down and read the two posts before this one.  That's where more details are, oh and I have a couple freebies there too.  The next stop on the hop is Yvette.  Her blog full of wonderful creations is Cre8tiveGirls.

The Goodies For My OWH Blog Hop Giveaway and a Digital Stamp and Note Card Freebie

This is my day before the Operation Write Home Memorial Day Blog Hop post, it's all about what I'll be giving away (or the blog candy as I think cool kids call it) and there's also a freebie at the bottom of this post.  I got pretty excited over doing this blog hop that I'm having three giveaways, so make sure you come back on Saturday morning (tomorrow) for the hop.  My first giveaway is a choice of five digital stamps from my Etsy Shop.  Here's a few samples of the digital stamps you can pick from.

Now, if you are a follower of this blog you could also win my second giveaway (below).

This giveaway is an actual tangible one.  It includes 10 permanent adhesive kraft brown sticker sheets, a pacakge of 24 self adhesive epoxy circles, a pad of 24 really cute tags, a package of 10 kraft paper mini gift tags and a package 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 chipboard (I think it's a 24 pack).  So, I love brown kraft paper, that's why most of this giveaway gift is made of brown kraft paper.  The sticker sheets are great for making your own stickers (I love using a 2 inch hole punch to make them), embellishments, decorations, labels, tags, you can do so many things with them.  The chipboard is great for the back of notepads, journals, cards, books, also so many uses.  This is some fun stuff!

Now, if I get some new blog followers I'll also give away the awesome sketchbook above.  I love using Prismacolor colored pencils and this paper is great for them.  This paper can go in your printer and you can print digital stamps right onto it or you can use your rubber stamps on it, or use it as an art journal.  I bought one of these recently, fell in love with it and went back to get another one so I could give it away.

Okay, some giveaway rules.

1. Leave a comment on the Blog Hop post and a link to your blog.

2. Anyone who leaves a comment is in the pool to win my first giveaway.

3.  In order to win the second and third giveaway prizes you have to be a blog follower.

4.  I have to get some new blog followers to giveaway the third prize.  I'm not sure how many, we'll see how many people leave comments, but hopefully I'll make some new bloggy friends.  Am I bribing you, perhaps, but you know.
