How was your weekend? My church retreat was wonderful....refreshing, rejuvenating, and relaxing! :)
Today the Stampers Dream Team has teamed up with the JustRite Stampers design team for a fun blog hop to celebrate their March release.
Along the hop we have 3 great blog candy prizes hidden! No one knows where the blog candy is! For your chance to win one of these three prizes simply leave a comment on each blog. Blog comments will remainn open until 8 pm CST - Tuesday March 22nd. The 3 winners will be announced on the Stamper's Dream Blog and the JustRite Blog on Wednesday March 23rd.
Here is what you have a chance to win - 4 JustRite Stamps sets of your choice...AND....a $50.00 prize package from Stamper's Dream (check out the photo below!) or a $50.00 shopping spree to the JustRite Webstore.
How awesome is that?! Remember, all you need to do is leave a comment on all the blogs along the hop for your chance to win. Good luck!
For my card, I used the Vintage Oval Labels cling set. I just love the ornate elegance of the images in this set, and the way they coordinate so beautifully with Spellbinders dies. I embossed my image using black embossing powder and colored it in with Copic markers. That richly colored patterned paper is from Echo Park's For the Record collection.
Here's a close up for you:
I sponged on a little Tim Holtz Pumice Stone Distress ink, and added White Opaque Pen accents to the flowers. The card size is 5-1/4" square.
Stop by the rest of the design team blogs to see their fabulous creations:
