Today is the day that our new January stamps are being released at The Craft's Meow, and it's our custom for the Design Team to have a Blog Hop using all of the new stamps! You should have arrived here from Karen's blog. I made 2 cards for you today.
My card uses one of Nina B's Beautiful Hymns, backed by some repeated stamping of a motif from the older Lovely Ovals set. All I needed to add were the paper roses and a grosgrain ribbon.
This one uses woodgrain hearts from Karen Baker's Lark Additions set, which is our free set this month with a $50.00 purchase, and the sentiment is from Many Thanks. I love how the hearts also give an impression of a forest of birch trees. I think this would be a good card to send to a man.
You can now view and purchase the new January sets at The Craft's Meow Store! Your next stop is at Lindsay's blog. Don't forget to leave a comment at each stop, because we're giving away all FIVE new sets to one lucky person! You'll have until 9 PM PDT, Wednesday, Jan. 23rd to leave a comment at each blog to be eligible for the prize. If you happen to get lost along the way, just go to The Craft's Meow Blog for a list of all the blogs participating and to see all 5 new sets revealed.

Hi Lin, found you on pinterest for buttons I think & was so thrilled to see you quilt & make cards! (I have worked in fabric stores for a long time & I sold stamps when I had a candy making store 25 years ago. The best part is, I hear your heart through what I've seen. I believe that in Blessing others, we bless ourselves.
ReplyDeleteSew Grateful--your Soul Sister,
