Paper Sundaes Blog Hop

Good Morning! Welcome to Paper Sundaes Sponsor Celebration and Blog Hop.
If you arrived from Carla's blog you are on the right track - if you just stumbled upon this post and would like to start from the beginning - go to Paper Sundaes blog.
We are so amazed by our upcoming sponsor line-up that we just had to share the news - our fabulous Shana found more sponsors than there are weeks!
Remember, there are five prizes to be awarded on the main blog with multiple chances for entry - read Paper Sundae's post for further details.Other candy can be found along the way on individual DT members' blogs - you need to visit all the blogs and comment to qualify for an entry to the draw - also each DT is featuring a different sponsor -can you guess who?

and here are the cards I made for you - I usually create girly cards, so I decided to challenge myself and step out of my comfort zone.
For both cards I used a stamp called Boys - Gone Fishing. On the first card I stamped it with Versafine on watercolor paper, embossed it and watercolored it using water based markers and inks. The sketch is from a current Eat Sleep Stamp challenge.On the second card I stamped the image on Whisper White CS, colored it, embossed it with clear EP and then brayered the sky behind the boy. I used a sketch from Cute Card Thursday.
All the designer papers and embelishments are from card kits I received from my SCS friends.

Hope you liked my cards, have a wonderful weekend and your next stop on our blog hop is Christine - I'm sure she has a fabulous creation ready for you.

Paper Maniac Bloghop

Welcome to the Paper Maniac Store Blog Hop. If you arrived from Nikki's blog you are on the right spot. If not, go back to the Paper Maniac Store Blog.

To get inspired for this blog hop - we were supposed to pick a Beatles song. When I browsed through all their songs the song Ain't She Sweet (from Anthology I album) immediately reminded me of the Flourishes stamps called Peaches and Cherries - ain't they sweet? And to make them even sweeter I made these little treat holders.
They are really simple and fit perfectly for one little Ghirardelli square chocolate. The cardstock is from
Bazzill Smoothies collection, border and corner punches are from Martha Stewart and I used matching bits of ribbon to close the holders.
The images are collored with Prisma pencils. The sentiment on the inside is from Flourishes -Strawberries set.


Paper Maniac has loads of craft supplies to buy and also 2 great prizes for you to win. How?

Prize #1: One random blog hopper will win a deluxe prize package that includes one mini-deck of all three new Cosmo Cricket papers, a package of American Crafts pearl brads, and the new Flourishes clouds background stamp.

Prize #2: if you are not a registered customer, Sign up in the store now! One new customer registering on January 30-31 will be randomly selected to win a $20.00 gift certificate.
