Stamping Royalty Blog Hop 2013


Hi all,

Few months ago, I shared that I won the Stamping Royalty contest by PaperCrafts Magazine. It's such an honor and privilege to be selected as one of the 15 winners. Again, I wanted to say THANK YOU SO MUCH Paper Crafts for selecting my card as one of the winners! 

I can't share the winning card until it appears in the magazine, but instead, all of the 15 winners, we decided to do a blog hop, and share some of our generous prizes we received. We decided in this blog hop to cover 5 categories, the same categories that were for the Stamping Royalty contest. I won in the Thank You category, and decided to again do a Thank you card. You can never have enough Thank You cards, can you? 

Check out the blogs and gorgeous creations of the other winners:

Before we go onto the prizes I have a card to share with you. For this card I used the Gorgeous Grunge set from Stampin' Up! and the colors are Daffodil Delight, Early Espresso, Blushing Bride and  Calypso Coral. As well I used some of the yummy  Candy Dots. Besides Gorgeous Grunge set I used as well a sentiment set called Lots of Thanks. 
The sides of the Very Vanilla layer are scored using the Simply Scored tool.
I tried to keep it pretty simple. 



Now onto the prize, I am giving away the set " From my Heart" wood mounted by Stampin' Up! 
You have until Tuesday, July 23rd 11.59pm to leave a comment for chance to win this stamp set. 

The winner will be announced on  Wednesday and you'll have until July 31st to claim your prize!
Good luck everyone :)
