Be Merry Blog Hop Challenge


Good morning! It's time for the third day of sneak peeks for There She Goes!


Our second set from new illustrator Danielle Lounds finds us celebrating the holidays with her unique style of combining handwritten sentiments, with super cute images.


Be Merry is a 4x8 set that includes a total of 9 stamps and will sell for $18.00. It will be released on Saturday, November 30th at 11pm EST.


I wanted to do something a little different for my card today. I stamped the ornament, then trimmed it out with a craft knife. Behind I created a little acetate pocket filled with sequins, snowflakes and glitter. Of course they all fall to the bottom when it's standing like this, here's a different angle..


Did you spot that double scallop border under the ribbon? So simple to do with the Snowman Soup die.


 Just cut, then reposition the paper, secure with tape and cut again. You can make it any width you choose!


The inside is really simple, mostly showing off the paper I wanted to peek through the window.

Would you like to win the new Be Merry stamp set? Here is what you need to do- visit the Trendsetter’s blogs that are participating in each of the blog hop challenges below and comment on their creations as you go. One of the Trendsetter’s blogs (from each hop day) will be randomly chosen as the ‘it’ blog and a winner will be picked using a random number generator from the comments left on that Trendsetter’s Blog Hop Challenge post. 

You will not know which blog has been chosen so the more you comment on the better your chances are of winning new stamps! The Blog Hop Challenges will be open until 5 PM Eastern Time Saturday, November 30th with the winner being announced during the release party chat.
