Seasons Giving Blog Hop!

Hi everyone!!  Happy Monday and Happy New Year!

Welcome to the Seasons Givings Blog Hop!  This hop is going to be a little bit different, in the fact that every single person on the list below, is giving something away.  All you need to do, is go to their blog, and leave a comment.  Really, really easy.  Now grab a cup of coffee, or tea, or maybe some hot chocolate, whatever your favorite is, and start hopping.  Here is to starting off the year 2013 in a fun way!

For my card today I used an MFT Sketch from two weeks ago that I hadn't used, MFTWSC103.  I thought that WTG Let's Grab Drinks would make a fun card for New Years!  I stamped her onto X Press It Blending Card and colored her with Copic Markers.  Her dress was paper pieced with the same papers I've used on my card, On Trend from Crate Paper.

Here is a closeup.  I added some Crystal Stickles to her cocktail!  The sentiment was stamped in Razzle Berry Ink onto a panel cut with the File Tab Die-Namics, which I shortened to fit the sentiment.  I also added a border using the Simply Scallops Medium Die-Namics.

I created the flower using the gorgeous new Winter Rose Die-Namics and I cut it from Razzle Berry Felt (my favorite color!).  I added a Hot Fudge Button to the center tied with Hemp Cord.

On the inside I added more patterned paper and stamped another sentiment from the set in Razzle Berry Ink, "It's Five O'Clock Somewhere".

Here are the Copic Markers I've used on my card:

And now, for what I am giving away!  If you've been to my blog before you've probably noticed my small obsession with patterned paper...well I am giving away 8 brand new paper pads, which include:

Carta Bella Paris Girl
