Hello Stampers~
I'm so excited to be a part of today's MEGA blog hop with JustRite! We have lots of JustRite yumminess to share! :)
My sample is made with one of my favorite new sets, Plant A Little Love.
I am so in love with the new line of Lush papers from My Mind's Eye...gorgeous! The one I used on my sample actually has a velvet-like texture; so I used the pretty velvet ribbon that comes in the package as well. Yes, I DID say that ribbon comes with the paper...you need to check this stuff out right HERE!
I embossed the JustRite border on Prism black cardstock using Vanilla embossing powder. I love the elegance of black and cream together, don't you?!
I then embossed the pretty floral image using JudiKins Detail Black embossing powder, and colored it with Gamsol & Prismacolor pencils. I added some pearls on the border to enhance the elegance. Here's a close-up of the focal image:
...25 designers, FIVE shopping sprees each day. No one knows where the
prizes will be! Each day of the hop JustRite will have five Mystery
Blog Candy Prizes hidden along the hop with a total retail value of
$600. JustRite will randomly select five mystery blogs each day of the
hop and randomly allocate each of the shopping sprees. For your chance
to win, simply leave a little love (a comment) on each designer’s blog
including the JustRite blog.
The more designers you leave comments with, the better your chances of
winning. Each day’s comments will remain open for three days. A
winner from each of the mystery blogs’ comments will be randomly
chosen using Random.org. Consult the listing of designers at the JustRite blog
each day (each day’s designers will be different) and start out on your
way! Beginning Friday, March 26, summaries of all the winners will be
posted on the JustRite blog. Good luck to everyone and enjoy all the JustRite eye candy along the hop!
Today during the JustRite Mega March Blog Hop (Day One) JustRite and its sponsors will be giving away the following five prizes:
· $200 JustRite Shopping Spree
· $100 Spellbinders Shopping Spree
· $100 Stampers Dream Shopping Spree, and
· Two additional $100 JustRite Shopping
Sprees!
Blog comments for Day One will be open until Thursday at 6pm EST. On Friday, JustRite will announce on their blog which five blogs have the mystery candy for Day One. You will need to go to the JustRite blog to determine where you need to go to find out if you are one of the five lucky winners.
