My project is this super cute Christmas Card. I love Christmas, so I thought this one suited me perfectly. 

The hearts are cut using the Sweethearts Cricut Cartridge using paper from DCWV. And of course I had to add some bling to them. I also use some cute grosgrain ribbons I bought from Michaels. They came together in a roll. The sentiment stamp is from Recollections.

And I have some Christmas Themed Blog Candy (because what's a hop without some candy):

Two Crafting Magazines from my collection. To enter, please leave a comment on this post. You must be a follower to win.US and Canada residents only, sorry, shipping is just too expensive. Now it's time for you to visit Colleen's blog.

What I am Thankful for Blog Hop

Hi, and welcome to the "What I Am Thankful For" Blog Hop. If you came from Rachelle's you are in the right place, if you just happened to come to this blog, you can start at the beginning with Lisa Peters


We're so excited to be doing this hop and we have a fabulous lineup with some very talented ladies. There will be lots of fun projects, along with some great blog candy, and a great grand prize for this hop.
he hop is a 2 day hop so you will have plenty of time to make it through the whole hop lineup twice. Check out each blog and see what blog candy you can win at the individual stops. Please come back both days to see great projects.


Here is my project:

Why is this a Halloween layout in November? Because these are the people I am thankful for. My wonderful hubby, and my friends Patty and Jasen. They are always there for me and are lots of fun to hang out with. We were having dinner at Buca Di Beppo before going into Universal's Halloween Horror Nights.

My project is made with Halloween paper from Pinecone Press. I like this line because it has a lot of elements you can just cut out and use, instead of having to die cut images. It's nice for a quick project. And the back sides of many of the papers have polka dot patterns that in colors that are great for fall layouts.


To be eligible for the grand prize, you must visit each blog, leave a comment and then become a follower of every participant in this hop. You also MUST visit my blog and leave a comment on my blog for the day and also become a follower at "Scrapping With Lisa" and my facebook page:http://www.facebook.com/pages/Scrapping-with-Lisa/130882060268842.

Sweet Stamping Treats September Blog Hop

Welcome to the Sweet Stamping Treats September Blog Hop! If you are arriving here from Lawren's blog you are in the right place. If you would like to start this hop from the beginning please go to http://sweetstampingtreats.blogspot.com/. We are showing off some of the fun creations that you can make with SST digi stamps. One hopper who comments on all of the blogs in the hop will win their choice of 3 SST  digi stamps, so be sure to check out all of the blogs on the hop. You must be a follower of SST to win.

And, since we are still waiting to give away our 200 followers give away prizes, we have come up with a new contest. We want you to refer your friends to follow SST! Why? Because the person who sends Sweet Stamping Treats the most referrals will win their choice of 5 (yes I said 5) SST digi stamps. And one of the comments from the all of the referrals will also win one SST stamp.  So tell your friends to follow http://sweetstampingtreats.blogspot.com/ and to leave a comment letting us know YOU sent them. The referral contest begins tomorrow, September 11, and end September 24. So share this contest on your blog, Facebook, Twitter or email so that we can give this fabulous prize, and hopefully our 200 followers give away prizes too!

My project today is not a card! Are you shocked? I though this stamp was so whimsical it would make a perfect picture:

This is the Violet Fairy stamp. I thought it would be a great decoration for a little girl's room. I colored in the stamp with my Copic Markers and then added Stickles in the flowers and on the fairy wings. You could put this one a frame. I used my Cricut to cut out this frame from Basic Grey paper and added a few rhinestones too it.

I hope you like my little project, and Happy Crafting!

Your next stop is Gina
