Sparkle Creations Grand Opening Blog Hop!

Hi everyone! Happy Saturday!!!

Welcome to the Grand Opening blog hop for Sparkle Creations Rubber Stamps! To start at the beginning of the blog hop, please go to the Sparkle Creations Rubber Stamps.

Today is an exciting day as Sparkle Creations is releasing 8 new darling stamp and giving away a ton of prizes! One lucky person will win the grand prize of all 8 images. There are also 5 single stamp prizes hidden, so make sure you comment on everyone's blogs!

You will have until midnight Eastern time to comment and the winners will be announced on the Sparkle Creations Rubber Stamps blog.

I am HONORED that my friend Sparkle has asked me to join in today's hop and I am SO excited for her and her new venture!

For my card, I used the TOTALLY adorable Surfing Oliver! I absolutely LOVE him! He is stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black onto Choice Snow White Cardstock and colored with Copic Markers. I cut him out and popped him up on Foam Tape onto a circle of SU! DSP (I can't remember the name at all) that was cut and embossed with Circle Nestabilities.

The other patterned paper is from Lil' Robots from My Minds Eye, and I added a border of Pumpkin Pie Cardstock cut from Die-Namics Ric Rac Die and embossed with the Die-Namics Grosgrain Texture Plate.

The sentiment is from Hangin' Out At The Beach by Taylored Expressions and I cut it out and embossed it with the medium tag from Tags Trio by Spellbinders and I attached it to my card with a Teal Sugar Coated Brad by Doodlebug Designs. I finished off my card with a fun striped ribbon that I knotted.

Sparkle will be offering free standard shipping for all orders over $25 for the weekend (til midnight EST Sunday), and the code is FREESHIP.

Thank so much for stopping by and now it's time to go to Jenn Royal's blog!

    I like all the texture you have incorporated in your creation. These colours are brilliant together too - & it's an interesting creation but just right for a male as it's not fussy.
