Softpencil Blog Hop!

Welcome to the Softpencil Studios blog hop!
If you've come here from Dalis' blog, then you're on the right track.  If not, then start at the Softpencil Blog so that you don't miss a thing.


Softpencil Studios is celebrating their anniversary and a few of us have been asked to join in on the celebration.  Seeing as how Elizabeth is one of the nicest people out there and how her images are so cute, I just couldn't say no :)




It's a huge celebration, so there will be several prizes to be won! 

  • There will be a winner for each blog hop (three winners) who´ll receive a gift certificate of $15. 
  • All the players who participate by leaving their comments on each blog of 1, 2 or the 3 blog hops will receive a free digi stamp of their choice
  • There will be a mystery blog during the hop with an extra chance of winning a digi stamp

For today's hop, I've used the adorable Sunny Gardener. This little bunny is ready for spring :)

Stamp Something Challenge: Thank You Somethings

The gals over at Stamp Something Challenges let me stay on as their guest DT for the rest of the year and I couldn't be more thrilled! Thanks gals! This week, our challenge is for you to make a thank you something in celebration of the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday. This challenge will run for two weeks so you have twice as much time to enter the challenge. AND if you enter the challenge, you have a chance to win image from either of our sponsors: SoftPencil or Card mad Fairy. How great is that?!

For my image, the text that wraps around the tree says "thankful for the little things." I think it's pretty appropriate, don't you?

  4. Diva Coffee Break - A color challenge

Crafty Creations Challenge #34: Blues!

I don't get as down about the middle of the week at some people. Since I'm always thinking ahead, it always goes through my mind that, "Yay, it's almost Thursday and then just one more day until Friday!" I don't know if that's a good thing or bad thing. Maybe I shouldn't want the work week to be over to quickly, lol.

Saskia has come up with a wonderful challenge for us this week at Crafty Creations: use blues! We have a fantastic sponsor, too: SoftPencil. You can also visit Elizabeth's blog here. She was always very generous enough to offer up an image for the DT to play with. I love all her images; they're just so adorable! Visit the blog to enter this week's challenge and to see some fantastic creations by the other DT members.

This card is also for these challenges:
  1. Bee Crafty - A sketch
  2. Lili of the Valley - A Christmas card for a child
  3. Creative Inspirations - Christmas in October
  4. Whimsy Challenges - Punches and Dies
  5. Everybody Art - Shapes and Punches
